i think it was only done 5days before my period not 7 would this make alot of diff to results

this is whats confusing me docs said anything over 20 is good . and is it still poss to get pregnant with a level of 23

23 would not actually indicate ovulation - a level of 30 or over would be ideal.

They should also look at and compare your LH and FSH levels. This should be done early in your cycle - day 3. If LH is higher than FSH this is an indicator of hormonal imbalances.

I really have to put to bed this myth that you need a level of 30 to show ovulation. You need a level of around 30 to sustain a pregnancy but it's perfectly possible to have ovulated on levels in the teens. I have been pregnant on levels of 18. The fact that this myth is perpetuated means, in my opinion, that many women are being told that they are not ovulating and getting pregnant when infact they are ovulating but their progesterone levels are not reaching high enough levels for implantation to occur and infact they're often having multiple very early miscarriages.

I had 4 m/c when ttc #2 and my levels never went over 23. All pregnancies were confirmed by blood tests. My 5th pregnancy had a level of 7 and doppler ultrasound showed no progesterone activity at all yet I had a BFP and once on progesterone supplements went onto have a healthy 41 week baby.

I have a two year old son. In the past six months I have been trying to get pregnant. However, in these months my period has been irregular. The doctor asked me to do a 21 day progesteron test. My result was 0.45 ng/ml. Can you please help me understand what that means? I am so worried!

Hello to all! I called myself scrammbled eggs as I thought the name was very appropiate. Around Christmas 2004 I had the 21 day test done and my result was 4!!! At the age of 25 my mother had more of a chance getting pregnant than I did! I then went for a scan which showed I had Polycystic Ovaries and my lack of eggs was one of the many side-effects. I was gutted!!! My doctor explained that my fertility level was very very low and that I would have a lot of bother getting pregnant. I was put on a drug called 'metformin'which is an insulin de-sensitizer usally used somehow for diabetes. It turns out that due to Pco's my body was producing too much insulin and had affected my egg count a great deal! I said I'd give it i try before I started chlomid or anything like that.I started the drug in Feb and guess what I was pregnant in April and had a beautiful baby girl born in Jan '06 whats more I then went on to have a wee boy in May '07 needing no help at all!Basically girls what Im trying to say, that I'd strongly advise any woman to have the 21 day test and get there ovaries checked, just to make sure that their wee factory inside is still in business! Hope this helped and good luck x

Last month at my 21day ovulation testing my level was at 5. This month my level was 37.1. I hate to admit but my hopes are sky high. I been given so much conflicting advice, what do you all think. My period is due in two days and im too scared to do a test.
