I know this sounds a bit stupid
but I’ve had had a day 21 blood test and my progesterone is low. My dr won’t prescribe anything and says it’s for the fertility department to do. (I don’t meet referral requirements due to BMI too high)
I have been trying for nearly 2 years and the first time I fell pregnant after 3 months of trying with my first child.
i get spotting early in the luteal phase too

can I not just get the progesterone only contraceptive pill and just take half of it or something to raise my progesterone levels ?

If you get spotting earlie in I would have thought you need the progesterone pesseries you insert into ur vagina… I did this after my rounds of ivf

a friend of mine who always miscarriage never did ivf she was just prescribed them so not sure but would suggest you need them
