My Day 21 progesterone level is . . . .

12.  Doc's office says it's plenty good enough (but as an over-achiever, I would have preferred to see something over 15).   Thyroid results are normal.  

DH drops off his sample for SE on Thursday.  The lab my doc uses is in Suffern and the sample has to be there within 30 minutes of emission (which he has to do at home b/c the lab doesn't want you doing it there, apparently), and kept at body temperature by holding it until it is dropped off.  I'm totally picturing me driving him down the thruway Thursday morning with him holding onto his cup o' ***, getting pulled over by the cops for speeding.  Think they'll let us off the hook if we show them the sample??   Hmm

  • a 12 is perfectly normal for an unmedicated cycle so congrats! We never did any samples at home b/c it was too far away (my husband calls the sample room the "closet of shame" lol), but I heard the best place to keep the sample is in your bra. GL with everything.

    It is SOOOO not going in my bra!  I'll suggest he wear a shirt with a pocket and hold it there!

  • Mine was reallllly low, I think 2.

    As for the cups drive to the lab, DH put it between his legs while he drove.  His thighs kept it nice and toasty. It was when he got there he was mortified. The waiting room was filled and they wanted to know why he was there. He almost died. "Dropping off a sample"......"A sample of what?"..."Um".... LMAO

  • GL with everything :)

  • That is a perfectly respectable number!!  Mine was always higher, but that is because we had MFI.  I have also been reading your other posts, and I too am glad that you are waiting to be monitored on the Clomid.  When I was taking it to get pregnant I would end up with ridiculous amounts of follies.  I am glad that I got monitored with ultrasounds because I could have been the next ocoto-mom!!
