Took the ff. test day 3 of AF - still within the follicular phase:
FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone) - stimulates the female ovaries to produce a
mature egg for fertilization. - MINE’s
NORMAL
LH (Luteinizing Hormone) - useful in the investigation of menstrual
irregularities and to aid in the diagnosis of pituitary disorders or diseases
involving the ovaries or testes. – MINE’s NORMAL
Progesterone
- a female hormone produced by the ovaries during release of a mature egg from
an ovary (ovulation). Progesterone
helps prepare the lining of the uterus (endometrium)
to receive the egg if it becomes fertilized by a sperm. If the egg is not
fertilized, progesterone levels drop and menstrual bleeding begins. –
I FAIL BY 0.01.
CAUSES (LOW PROGESTERONE)
There are
multiple explanations for why your progesterone levels may be low. A common
cause of decreased progesterone levels is an overabundance of estrogen, which
can mask the effects of progesterone. Other causes include chronic stress, poor
diet, insufficient exercise, thyroid disorders, a tolerance to insulin
production and certain medications. (Read more on this link.)
Prolactin – high levels of prolactin
may cease menstrual period and ovulation thus causing infertility. It is the main hormone for causing milk
production. Low levels show no
significance. – MINE’s NORMAL.
And I now have the results. What's my next game plan?
There might be a huge amount of estrogen in my blood stream that causes low progesterone. I'll include the estrogen with the TSH levels when I have it tested sometime this week.
Then I saw a forum on FEMALENETWORK - GTalk regarding the Traditional Chinese (herbal medicine) doctor from Binondo, My husband and I are planning to see him anytime this week too. I love when he is cooperating. Gives me that big smile on my face!
