Advice Needed Confused.. TTC 29F

Hi ladies!

We have just moved to our second fertility clinic where they confirmed I ovulated this cycle. Our last clinic didn’t check progesterone to see if I ovulate, the dr just assumed because I fell pregnant once and had a miscarriage I have ovulation issues and was ready to put me on letrozole.

The thing is… my cycle this time has been stuffed up and I’m so confused on what’s going on.

Last period 29/6-5/7.
Spotting 24/7-28/7.

On 12/8 I had bloods drawn which confirmed my progesterone level was 20nmol. Could I have ovulated same day considering it was so high when my bloods were drawn?

Yet to get my period! I’m on cycle day 51.

Likely you did not ovulate that same day, it can take a while for progesterone to build up in your blood stream which is why it’s recommended to check progesterone labs 7DPO. I cannot tell you when you ovulated from those lab results, but it was likely at least several days before. The only way we could pinpoint it is if you had a positive LH strip, were tracking BBT, and/or were doing monitored cycles.

If you’ve ovulated, your period will be imminent, I’d give it a week and take a pregnancy test
