http://www.tcoyf.com/media/g/low_progesterone_charts/default.aspx<p>If your basal temperatures reflect a luteal phase of 10 days or less there may be a problem with progesterone production, in addition to this or alternately your temperature may show little rise from preovulatory temperatures and cluster near then coverline. If there is a problem with progesterone production in the latter phase of your cycle, you will probably be prescribed a natural version of it.</p> <p>In order for a fertilized egg to have a chance to implant and mature, the corpus luteum must maintain the latter phase of the cycle for at least 10 days. In addition, once pregnancy occurs, it must continue to live long enough for the developing placenta to take over the function of providing nutrition for the embryo. If you have been prescibed progesterone and are currently using it please place your chart in the Taking Progesterone Gallery.

I had a very slow rise in temperature after I ovulated and then my temperatures began to drop. I am taking 200mg of Prometrium at night but I don&#39;t think my body is responding to the medication like it should. I feel like another cyst has come up on my left ovary because I am having the same kind of pain on my left side as I have been having on my right side where I know there is a 2cm cyst on my ovary. I have struggled with my progesterone for a year now. We are scheduled to our RE as soon as I start my period so for once I am glad that I am starting my period so they can figure out what is going on with my body. Just wanted to post this chart in case it helped someone. http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1570991.aspxTue, 08 May 2012 06:45:10 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1570991meggysmom5pre-ovulaton is anywhere from 36.1-36.4,post ovulation is normally 36.5-36.8 but usually 35.6 or 36.7.Are these temps post ovulation high enough?Do I still have any chance this month with these temps?http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1546565.aspxFri, 09 Mar 2012 17:49:49 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1546565princesa3Do I have low progesterone... What do you think? We&#39;ve been ttc for more that 6 months ago with no luck. I know my temperatures are above cover line. http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1535758.aspxThu, 16 Feb 2012 15:32:17 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1535758christy08303Could this be an indication of low progesterone? I have been spotting since 7dpo but my temps are above the coverline. Also, I had to manually move my O date this cycle cause for some reason it was marked on day 11, but I obviously didn&#39;t O till day 20. Opinions?http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1535504.aspxThu, 16 Feb 2012 00:30:40 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1535504Anonymous1All the spotting was due to low progesterone. I used 40mg of natural progesterone after ovulation. My progesterone was a 7 when it was tested and so the doctor gave me 400mg of Prometrium. Unfortunately, I miscarriaged at 7 weeks. Just wanted to share the chart in hopes that it might helps someone. http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1525901.aspxFri, 27 Jan 2012 05:34:15 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1525901tweety1I am a 34yr old mother of 5 and are hoping to add one last little one, though after more than 6 months of trying nothing has happened so I thought I would chart, haven&#39;t done that since my second child who is turning 11! Our fist took us 6 months, so we started out Charting with the second but with him and all our others we got prego the month before trying. This whole year I have had a bit shorter cycles and periods only 3 days instead of 5-6, but with 2-3 days of spotting first then the period. I brought it up with my family Dr who takes care of my Thyroid meds in May and they ran some extra tests and found nothing, then again at my OB yearly appt since I was there anyway and she also ran tests but found nothing, so I didn&#39;t worry. Now I&#39;m thinking it may be but not sure if I should wait another month to chart and show Dr or just take this in. I did start B6 last month and that helped this month look more normal, but I am pretty sure I already had one early M/C 2 months ago and really would like to have this figured out. Up until this year I have been a clockwork cycle same times each month etc. Any advice or help would be wonderful, thanks!http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1525538.aspxThu, 26 Jan 2012 15:31:51 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1525538katymitchelljones432yo, TTC#3, 1st cycle after mc, 2nd cycle total, used prometrium after ovulation this month. Faint BFP 9DPO! 14DPO Bhcg=250 and progesterone 19. 16DPO Bhcg= over 600. We are really excited and hopeful this one will stick with God&#39;s help. Last month&#39;s mc was first month after 3 years of birth control pill and my numbers were 1.8 for progesterone and 69 for hcg at 16DPO, so this one looks MUCH better. Quit temps because it was stressing me out:) http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1519399.aspxSat, 14 Jan 2012 01:32:08 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1519399amosley132After several strange cycles, I started to level out last month. I have 2 boys and have had 4 miscarriages. At 11 days past ovulation my HCG was 40 and progesterone was 13.4. Dr put me on Prometium today, but he is not planning on checking progesterone again. I had my HCG taken again today and am feeling pretty good. I had low progesterone with my second son and he is a happy and healthy five year old boy so I am optimistic for my new little guy:)http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1508272.aspxWed, 21 Dec 2011 00:28:12 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1508272katymitchelljones5I had a total of four tests, first two got stronger last two fading lines. Progesterone was super low and bHCG was only 69 at 5 weeks so just waiting for AF so we can try again. This was 1st cycle after 3 years on miniPill which explains low progesterone. Praying for better results next time and thankful for two healthy kiddos at home:)http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1506477.aspxFri, 16 Dec 2011 19:25:39 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1506477ashleywalter4My doctor says I have low progesterone - it is 12. My temps on my chart are so high. What to make of this?http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1473761.aspxWed, 12 Oct 2011 18:39:30 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1473761aah351113Can someone help me out with this? I am afraid that the continued spotting just before my period is indicating low progesterone...Thoughts? Any and all comments are appreciated!http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1468978.aspxSun, 02 Oct 2011 13:50:47 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1468978erscott1Is this worrisome? I&#39;ve never had a cycle like this before. My BBT usually increases until 3-5 DPO and then levels out around 97.9F. However, this time it&#39;s decreasing every day! I know I&#39;m still 3 tenths above the coverline, but I&#39;m worried that my progesterone may be low in this cycle. I also have had uterine cramps that started yesterday and a faint brown tint to CM, but not enough to call it spotting. My LP usually lasts 10-11 days. Has anyone experienced this before and conceived? If so, what did you do to correct it, if necessary? Thanks so much!http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1468050.aspxFri, 30 Sep 2011 01:39:40 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1468050Christinas20064Doctor tested my progesterone at 7 dpo and it was 5.4. Needless to say I&#39;m not pregnant. I start a cycle of clomid, estradiol, and promentrium. Wish me luck!http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1464351.aspxThu, 22 Sep 2011 15:05:08 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1464351mwalker735This is my first time posting a chart here. I&#39;m 37 and we&#39;ve been trying (on and off) unsuccessfully for over 10 years. Just recently with a new physician, I&#39;ve been told I have low progesterone levels. I&#39;m upset that no one tested me before and doubly worried that we&#39;ve only gotten pregnant twice altogether (m/c). I&#39;m holding out for hope that we may succeed in the future. http://www.tcoyf.com/media/p/1459000.aspxSat, 10 Sep 2011 12:34:24 GMT7ecd6623-b438-4ce6-905c-5fa791ae87c0:1459000Brekke1We have been TTC since March, but DH was out of town for CD 3-17...so we know we were out for this month. But, I had a progesterone test on 8/8 (CD24) that came back low (5 and I think they like to see it above 10). If this chart is similar to yours, I was hoping to give you some hope. I just posted a new chart in &quot;Pregnant!&quot;. My BFP was with the help of Ovidrel and Prometrium, and my progesterone levels were nice and high on 9/1. Lots of luck and Baby Dust to all TTC!!
