Hey, it really depends when on your cycle those bloods were taken. Progesterone (p4) should be taken 7 days post ovulation for example. It should be higher than 28/30 which will indicate ovulation.

Did your Dr not discuss your results or voice any concerns she had with you?

Sorry I'm not much help

My day 2 results were:

Estrodiol: 78

LH: 7.5

FSH: 6.5

Didn't test progesterone but yours is nice and low which it should be early on in the cycle.

I was 38 so mine might not have been perfect but the nurses seemed happy enough...

Have you also had internal scan (antral follicle) and AMH test to check out follicles quality & quantity?

It's frustrating I know when all you want is to fall pregnant and it isn't happening. They'll be looking at your age (nice and young) and the fact that you've "only" been trying a year (they say it can take 2 years) and won't consider it urgent. But it's good you're investigating and that way you can relax and keep trying once you get the all clear from the tests. I advise doing Basel thermometer testing each morning the whole month and charting it to see if you're getting the spike each month. Keep the chart for each month to see a pattern. Fertility Friend is a good app to use. Also keep doing the advanced clear blue fertility monitor ovulation tests from day 6 till af because most women don't ovulate on day 14. Hope some of this helps. Best of luck
