Newcomer questions- Update 12/14
Hi everyone- I've been reading all the posts and am happy that I found this board because everyone seems so knowledgable and friendly ... To introduce myself, I am 33- Conceived my son via clomid 150mg./IUI after 3 attempts with an RE- (Wasted 8 months on clomid alone with no monitoring with my Gyn errrrr.....) We are now trying for a second....Recently had my 3rd unsuccessful IUI on 200mg Clomid...Dr. is willing to go to 4 before IVF (doctor does not want me on injectibles for fear of over stimulation/multiples....Unexplained fertility- possible mild PCOS....This is my newest and STRANGEST situation...Went on CD 3 for sono/blood and was called by nurse saying not to start Clomid- I may be OVULATING !...Estrogen elevated and 25mm follicle...Go on day 4 to see if estrogen rises to rule out cyst and it does and follicle is a 28mm ! Did trigger today and IUI tomorrow- I am so confused- How can I be ovulating during my AF ??????...Anyone ever hear of this ??? Thanks guys and nice to be aboard
12/14- Well I went for my 7DPO bloodwork to double confirm that I ovualted and that this wasnt just a cyst- And they confirmed- I did ovulate ....Now for my questions LOL-They said my Progesterone was 11 and the Estrace was in the 180's Nurse said the #'s are great- Any opinions on these #'s would be great !

Thats a great # for progesterone, it should be above 8. Not sure what estrace is though.

I think I remember estrace being the same as estrogen for some reason....I should have asked that....

Actually progesterone should be above 10 on a natural cycle at 7dpo. Medicated it should be above 15. If you are on 200 mg of Clomid your post O progesterone should be higher I think. I am not a dr b ut have done a few cycles of Clomid. When my prog. was 13 post O they upped my dosage to 100 mg from 50

This cycle was a weird one- I wasnt on the Clomid and I actually ovulated on my own (probably for the 1st time in a very long time) ...So if anything above a 10 on a natural cycle is good, I guess I'm ok then...Thanks !
