Progesterone levels
Hi ladies!
So I went in for my b/w to check my progesterone levels today. The doc says he likes to see anything above 17 right now. Last IVF I was at 16 and they upped my PIO dosage...this time I was at 23.4!! So it looks like I am doing better at absorbing it this cycle.
Do you think that is a good sign? It's so strange how each cycle can be so different! I don't get it.
Wishing you all a great day!
Bridget
