thanks - everything is on track - even though I am sort of on the low side (~15) - it is still over 10 where they want me to be. I had a 6.5 week ultrasound yesterday and saw my baby's heartbeat!!
from what i heard is that your prog levels fluctiautes during the day. it can go up and down in one day. as long as it does not alarm the doctor then i would not worry. keep taking your meds though.
I was told by RE nurse that your progesterone is always a little higher than what is indicated with your bloodwork when you use progesterone suppostitories because the progesterone goes straight to where its needed and not always into your blood supply. If I remember right, I was taking 25mg in am and pm at the time and the nurse told me its actually about 10 higher. She also told me progesterone is usually higher in the morning and within three hours of useing the suppositories.
Thanks -- she said this "Your progesterone level fluctuates throughout the day so if we checked it an hour later it could be back to 19. We want is 10 and greater so the level was fine. Dr. Kaplan doesn't recommend increasing your dose. You can recheck your p4 level next week if you'd like to make yourself feel better but I definitely don't think the hcg is necessary."
I responded to your post on the other forum, but I don't think that you have anything to worry about. See what your nurse emails back to you and let us know :)
