Do you have the book "Taking Charge of Your Fertility", by Toni Weschler? If not, please check it out from the library or get it ASAP. It will help you make sure you are measuring and charting temps and symptoms correctly. It sounds to me like you are not ovulating. Even with low progesterone, you usually have a small rise that stays a couple tenths above for 12-14 days before period starts. If you are in your 30's, don't wait a year before seeking help with your infertility problems. Standard rule of thumb for us practitioners is if no conception in 6 months of trying to conceive and woman is 35 or older, it's a good idea to refer to reproductive endocrinology. Average couple under age 35 will take up to 5-6 months to conceive and 80% will conceive with 1 yr of trying. If, however, you are not ovulating, you need some blood tests to determine the cause. Best day to do hormone blood test for hormones (LH, FSH, TSH, estrogen, testosterone, progesterone, prolactin, etc) is day 3 of your cycle (third day after bleeding starts). Sometimes progesterone is repeated around day 21. Best wishes! Nurse Midwife Mom of 3
