Guest guest Posted October 23, 2000 Report Share Posted October 23, 2000 , I just think that people stick their noses into other people's private affairs too much. It's no ones business but their own. I would like to know how the press found out about it! Yes, I'm exactly one month from delivery today - wow - I can barely believe myself. How is everything with dh? Is he feeling better? Hope to hear from you soon.

Guest guest Posted November 10, 2000 Report Share Posted November 10, 2000 Joleen, Thank you so much sweetie. This really came as quite a shock and I'm trying not to get attached just yet, but it's so hard not to.... Just when I thought the ride was over, here we go again! Thanks for thinking of me!

Guest guest Posted November 10, 2000 Report Share Posted November 10, 2000 Hey, I just got a call from my RE's office and my progesterone level was 21.3 on CD26. She said she doesn't think I need any support and we'll check everything again on Monday. Do any of you have anything I can compare my Prog. level to?

Guest guest Posted November 10, 2000 Report Share Posted November 10, 2000 That sounds great to me. I found a couple of sites on progesterone www.fertiltyplus.org/faq/hormonelevels.html ( not sure if its faq or fag) www.repro-med.net/papers/progest.html http://members.spree.cm/health/journey2baby/hormones.htm I can't wait to hear your next beta on Monday!!

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2000 Report Share Posted November 11, 2000 Hi , I know a little about progesterone because with each of my mcs, mine was low. I do know that your's sounds great--anything over 20 is very good. From what I remember, they like to see it at least 12 or 13 to get pg, but when you have a healthy pg--it's goes up into the 20's. There is a debate about progesterone--kind of like the chicken and the egg syndrome. Some dr's believe that low progesterone is a sign that the pg is already failing. Others believe that you can supplement low prog, and the pg will be alright. Even with supplementation, mine levels were only 14 (and they were right, the pg was already failing). Your levels are great, and I have a very good feeling that this will be it for you. All the best, __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
