That sounds really high to me! I know 10 is considered minimum...
Is it ng/mL? I just found this:

Progesterone (P4) 7 dpo > 15 ng/ml
A progesterone test is done to confirm ovulation. When a follicle releases its egg, it becomes what is called a corpus luteum and produces progesterone. A level over 5 probably indicates some form of ovulation, but most doctors want to see a level over 10 on a natural cycle, and a level over 15 on a medicated cycle. There is no mid-luteal level that predicts pregnancy. Some say the test may be more accurate if done first thing in the morning after fasting.

Hey beachlover. When I was pg the nurse told me my progesterone level was 45, and she said anything over 40 was fine so I think you should be ok. Were you TTC this month or waiting a cycle? Could you be up the duff...??
