When is Day 21? I need to start taking progesterone...

[monkeybumsmum]

Had a CP last month and started spotting on the Wednesday. Full on bleeding started on the Saturday and so I was going to take that as CD1.

However, I think am ovulating at the moment which is 14/15 days from when the spotting started.

I am so confused as to when CD1 was, as my follicular phase is normally 14/15 days which would mean I should go from the Wednesday.

Will it make a huge amount of difference if I get it wrong and start taking my progesterone supplements on the wrong day? I don't want to do anything to jeopardise a potential pregnancy

Anyone else been in this situation?

Hi ive just been given progesterone to and started taking it cd23 as this was when doc gave it to me. The doc told me that if not PG this month then take it as soon as i Ovulate next month so i dont think it will be a problem.

Why do you need to take it ?

I was given it as started temping and this showed possible low progesterone and then at 7DPO i got a temp spike it went up by 7 degrees and doc was sure it is implantation spike and as i have had 3 MC thought it would be a good idea to take it.

Fell very achinhg down there though and not sure if thats the progesterone or not as dont normally have it. Could be a good sign though and mean implantation is happening.

Hi ray, and thanks for replying! I feel a little less anxious now if I do end up starting it on the 'wrong' day.

I'm taking it because I've also had 3 mc's - it's awful isn't it My gynae's put me on baby aspirin too, and then I have to take the progesterone from CD21 until either I get AF or if I'm pg then I have to continue with it.

I do hope that your doctor was right and that it was implantation. I shall be keeping my fingers crossed for you... How long before you might find out?

I think I recognise your name actually - are you on the Clomid thread? Been lurking there as my gynae wants me to try it.
