| Day 21 test - advice needed Hi
I just rang the doctors to get my results for my day 21 blood tests and spoke to the receptionist.
She said that everything was normal, that my progesterone was 64 (64 what she couldnt say) and that the result was 'likely to be ovulating'.
I am not seeing my fertility doctor till the 3rd April so cant discuss these with him till then - but was a bit confused by them. is 'likely' a positive thing or not? Am so nervous about the whole thing was kinda hoping for a 100% definite you are ovulating, balloons, fireworks etc... not 'likely' - thats such a crap word!!!! Although obv much much better that 'not likely' so beggars cant be choosers and I am really grateful - but if anyone has been through the same thing and knows how positive 'likely' is I would love to know.

V jealous of your 79.1 Priya - you can go to the top of the class!!!! Hoping that my 64 is ok - i read somewhere that over 50 was good. I'm 14dpo today and was going insane - but started spotting v lightly at lunchtime - so looks like the witch will be with me in full flow sometime tomorrow  . But I am playing the 'glad game' so if AF arrives then I should be glad as I have a wedding at the weekend so can drown my sorrows in a few cosmopolitans and glasses of champagne  .
Crossing fingers for your bfp.

I'm Currently Feeling: | Different tests give different QUANTITATIVE results ladies, so be careful when you're comparing to another ladies levels.
A lot of tests, test ng/mL which normal should be around 10 - 12, 20 being excellent (and most likely in a medicated cycle). Anything over 5 in a normal cycle (non medicated) should be an indication of ovulation.
The 70's and 80's numbers poping up here are likely a different test, and should be taken into consideration.  |

I didn't mean to sound so crabby!  I just wanted to make sure everyone was aware that these different numbers probably related to different tests, not different results  |
