    Help! What should I do?

    So I just got my results back on my Progesterone levels they are at a .Yikes, not even a 1 I don't know what to do now should I stop LE and introduce meat, but stick to the 1800-2000 calorie limits (I'm on the upper levels)? I have been on LE 6 1/2 and do have cheats on weekends. I always feel extremely exhausted, despite the fact that I get 7-8 hrs of uninterrupted sleep. I do my 60 min cardio 6 days a week.

    Also, Dr. wants me to starts my next round of Provera until CD25, in case I get pregnant from here until then...really? I'm on CD25 with nothing should I just bump it up and start my Provera on CD28 and then my first round of Clomid days 3-7 (as advised)?

    Please help me someone, I need to have some Progesterone

    TIA

    What part of the cycle were you in when this was tested??

    My recommendation is to hold off on the meat, have a serving of full fat dairy every day, and 2 eggs 3x a week (6 total but space them out).

    RE being exhausted, I think you need to try adding in 18-30 mg iron taken daily for 2 weeks, then switch to 3x a week.

    I'm not quite following what your doctor's directions were with the Provera. As a general rule it's best to follow your doctor's instructions and I can't really tell you what to do until I have a better understanding of why they gave those directions.

    Thanks for the response, it was my 21 day cycle Progesterone check (after first round of Provera). I'm still tempting and using OPK's have been doing since July, but never have not Ov since then. He put me on another roundof Provera to start AF and then Clomid from Cd3-7.Thanks and I will go buy some Iron pills this afternoon, and add some fill fat diary. With my Progesterone being extremely low can Clomid help me have a successful pregnancy? TIA

    did you ovulate or not? If you didn't ovulate prior to the bloodwork, then it's perfectly normal for your progesterone to be low at that part of your cycle and absolutely nothing to worry about.

    I'd still do the iron and dairy/eggs to try and bring on ovulation, and clomid absolutely does raise your progesterone, but the number was likely only that low because you didn't ovulate. Progesterone is naturally low before ovulation, and it doens't matter what cycle day you are on if you have not ovulated. No ovulation, no progesterone, because it's the hole that the egg comes out of that makes progesterone.
