Progesterone level 58/Negative hcg

Progesterone level 58/Negative hcg

I have been on Clomid since February 3rd ( day 4-8 of cycle). I had a positive ovulation test on day 17 and took my progesterone blood test on day 21. My progesterone was 58. In January my level's were 1.6. So, the doctor told me I could be pregnant, so I took a blood test on day 24, and it was negative. I'm supposed to start my period on Saturday (in 3 days). What I think is, I ovulated late ( not in day 13, 14, and 15 of cycle) so, my progesterone levels were still high, when I took the blood test, because it was only 5 days past. Even if I the embryo and sperm did meet, it would be way to early to show, correct?

Has this ever happen to anyone and ended up having a positive pr test a couple weeks later?

58 is a very good progesterone level. However, there is no indication of pregnancy in any progesterone result.  If you ovulated on CD17 and took a test on CD24 (7dpo), that would be way too early to get pregnancy results.  Typically, women will start testing at around 12dpo.

Personally, I wait until I am officially late and then start testing because I don't like the added stress of the testing!

Good luck and hope this helps!

Progesterone also does increase the level of progesterone. That is one of the reasons why my doctor put me on it.  

But with that being said, wow 58!!! That is high!!!! When I found out I was pregnant my progesterone was only 63!! ( I was on Clomid too)

Good luck!

I just had my first IUI on 4/25/11 and will be starting the progesterone tomorrow.  My two week prescription was over a $107!!  I was blown away by  how spendy it was.  Someone mentioned to me that some clinics have a med program of sorts where patients sell their unused meds.  Has anyone heard of this?  Im going to ask about samples or a different brand that has a generic..be nice to save money where I can since this whole process is quite the investment.
