Progesterone only 17.9, 4DPT. Can't help feeling we are already out 😞.

Had my bloods done again today to check if my progesterone has come up following it only being 15.7 on transfer day.

I have had 3 full days of 1600mg progesterone - Utrogestan 1200mg (vaginally) and Cyclogest 400mg (rectally) and its only come up by 2.2!

I have been advised to continue with the pessaries / suppositories until the Prontogest 100mg Injection arrives on Thursday. Once starting the injection it will be 100mg once every 3 days and I am to stop the Cytolgest 400mg. But continue with the Utrogestan 400mg three times a day.

Thursday will be 6DPT I am just hoping it will be enough in time 😔.

I know its too early to tell but other than headaches, bloating and slightly more painful boobs I feel no different and I know all these are side effects of the progesterone anyway the constant cramps aren't helping either because it feels like my period is about to start.

Feeling soo deflated but really trying to stay positive. Why is this process soo hard 😢

Hi JadeH. Just keep up with your prescribed medication, and hopefully you will boost your progesterone level sufficiently. Good luck! Diane
