Progesterone

Hello all.
I am trying to figure something out and I need some advice. I am going to do and IUI my next cycle. I did a round of Clomid this month and was put on progesterone after ovulation. I am using Promedium suppositories. I need to try to have my AF on a certain day so my next O will fall on a day off of work. They have cut our vacations and are being really strict about time off. I was on Provera last year and my AF came 3 days after my last pill. Should I expect the same time frame on Promedium? Has anyone had experience with this. I'm not sure when I O'd  for sure so It's hard to know when to stop by that. I started it a couple of days after I thought I O'd. Any advice would be appreciated.

When I took prometrium after O, it definately delayed AF.  What I did was take an early pregnancy test about 10 days post ovulation, and if bfn, stopped the prometrium.  Not a super scientific method I know, but I found that the early FRER's with first morning urine were pretty accurate at 10 days.  I then found I got AF about CD 28 or so.  Hope that helps a bit...

I found that progesterone delays my AF and usually my ovulation the following cycle was earlier to put me back on track! It usually took 1-2 days for AF to arrive and then ovulate was 2 days earlier, so for me, it seems my body still wants to same on the same cycle.
