7DPO Progesterone BW

I got mine back and it was 14.2....is that good?  She said I ovulated, but I was just wondering about the numbers.  Thanks!

I should mention I was on 100mg of Clomid - and I o'd a week ago today.  Took the blood test at 11 yesterday morning.

It does show that you o'd for sure, which is definitely good. Some women take longer for progesterone to build up in the blood, too. Progesterone isn't really a good indication of pg, though. I have seen so many women bummed out due to a lower # to turn out to be pg. And, seen just the opposite. I had a progesterone # on cd21 of 50something one time and was not pg.

Yes, though. 14 is a definite o.  My dr likes to see it more in the 20's on Clomid. But, a day can make a huge difference on the test. 14 is good :)

she said since i don't ovulate at all on my own this was good.  usually with clomid i only get one follicle - no matter what dose i am on.  iIve never gotten more than one.  i asked about progesterone supplements and she said I didn't need them...but my thoughts are - what if this has been my problem the whole time we've been trying to get pregnant?  What if my progesterone just isn't strong enough to sustain a pregnancy?

I don't see how taking progesterone could hurt.  It could only help.  I had a progesterone level of only 12.2 wiht an injectable cycle of IUI 7dpiui and I was sure I couldn't get pregnant with that low of a number but low and behold, I am pregnant, but only with one unfortunately.  You definitely ovulated so you could definitely get pregnant.  Good luck!!  I would ask the doctor if youc an take progesterone supp.  They had me on them and I am still on them even though my prog. level is now over 20.

Went to see her this morning - she didn't suggest it.  She said since I don't ovulate on my own that it was a very good number and is strong enough to sustain a pregnancy.  thanks all!

My cd21 progesterone came back 19. I was not on progesterone but after finding out I was pregnant 4 days later he put me on 100mg. I think because I have had  2 m/c and my last pg I was on it as a precaution too. It doesn't necessarily mean it helped,  but it didn't hurt :)
