bloodwork came back
Progesterone levels are within normal range (I got a 24.1; "normal" is btw 4.4 and 28). This is good, obviously... but I still don't know what's causing the mid-LP spotting. It's not implantation bleeding b/c it happens each month. And I can't make an appt with my doc because the results were normal.
Anyone have a crystal ball I can borrow??

Re: bloodwork came back
Thats great your levels came back normal. But why cant you make an appt with your doctor even if the tests came back normal? You are still having spotting and there has to be a reason why this is happening. I would make an appt and discuss what other tests can be done or what the next step is. Good luck!!

I agree. Perhaps there's something else they can check

No one seems to take me seriously enough to find out what's wrong. How do I muscle my way into my doc's office???

ITA!!! I just switched doctors and I told my new doc about past problems in my family and she wrote up a referral for me to get bloodwork done- I didnt even have to argue with her about it.
How long have you been TTC?

Re: bloodwork came back
We're finishing up our 4th month ttc. I know it's not long. And I'm young and in good health.
I've been trying to talk to someone about this since before TTC. So I found a new doc, and really liked her after our initial appointment. When I called her with a spotting question, she told me I was fine (over the phone, w/o an exam). I actually went back to the old doc, and that was who gave me an Rx for bloodwork.

Re: bloodwork came back
Have you had an internal sono done. I had bleeding every month and they did the internal sono and found they were polyps causing it. I had to have them removed but I was only out for 1 month then right back at TTC.

Re: bloodwork came back
I have had bleeding mid cycle for the last two months also and my doctor sent me for an internal sonogram. I am still waiting on the results. If you haven't had that done, I think that would be the next step.
Good luck!

Re: bloodwork came back
Sounds like you need to find a new doctor. You need to be comfortable with them!
