Progesterone levels

    Hi guys
    I'm just wondering if anybody would have any more information on this. I'm 6w +1 day today but I got bloods done on the 12th April before I discovered I was pregnant. It was day 20 of my cycle and my progesterone levels were 8.6. Is this quite low and should I be worried? I have antiphospholipid syndrome and am talking innohep injections daily and aspirin. I could be just over worrying!

    Progesterone should be tested at 7 days past ovulation, as it is released by the corpus luteum after ovulation. On other parts of your cycle it can be hard to interpret. So there is no way to tell if your level is low or not. If you ovulated later, its probably fine.

    Do you know when you ovulated?
