Your progesterone is ‘normal’
…but normal for what? 👇

Most clinics use a simple cut-off (like >30) this confirms ovulation and so is classed as a normal result.

But it does NOT tell you:

❌ if levels are optimal for implantation
❌ if timing was correct
❌ if your body can sustain pregnancy

The biggest issue I see?

👉 Testing at the wrong time

Day 21 only works for a textbook cycle
…and most women don’t have one

✔ Always test 7 days after ovulation
✔ Use OPKs and BBT tracking to confirm

Because:

A number without context is just a number.

👉🏻One area researchers are paying increasing attention to in fertility is the reproductive microbiome.

🕵️‍♀️ It’s not always part of standard fertility testing, but it can influence inflammation, implantation and the environment the embryo enters.

❓If you’ve been told your fertility struggles are “unexplained”, sometimes the missing piece simply hasn’t been investigated yet.

🧩 If you’d like to explore this topic further, I recently wrote a guest blog for where I talk more about the reproductive microbiome and some of the areas that may be worth exploring when fertility struggles remain unexplained.

If this resonates with you and you’d like to read the full blog, comment or DM the word “LINK” and I’ll send it to you.
