I am trying to concieve so they put me on clomid. I took them as recommended. 7 days after the last pill, the Dr. sent me to get my estradiol levels checked. My estradiol levels are 594.00, it is considered abnormal. Can someone give me some feedback on this please?, I am worried.

The Dr prescribed me provera to induce period last month and clomid. I didn’t get pregnant last month and I noticed my temps were too low. I previously had a miscarriage at 5weeks in march. And got pregnant on clomid also. Anywho. Now this month I took provera again and the Dr gave me 150mg this time instead of 100 lk last month. I took clomid for day 3-7. By day 5th my period had stopped. I read about this progesterone cream and decided to buy it. I used it on day 6 and 7 I stopped using it and my temps started dropping down but with out ne using it still it went up on 10,11,&12 day. On day 12 I went back on it but its still dropped a little.on day 13 it went down below the cover line to 96s and my chart said it no longer new if I ovulated or not. I’m now on day 14 yest I used the cream and today it went high to 97.40 so now my chart is saying I did ovulate. My question is. Did I ovulate or not? And if I didn’t is the cream going to prevent me from ovulating even if i took clomid? I’m confused.
So now since I screwed up this cycle. Do I just keep using the progesterone cream til 2 weeks from now til i start my new cycle and just do it right next time?or do I stop using progesterone cream til I start my period?

As I begin my story, I have currently in the middle of a hot flash. Pulling up my hair and madly fanning my neck. I have learned that applying coolness to the neck is the fasted way to cool down. RELIEF!!! Now I can begin my story…

My name is Amy and I am 33 years old. On October 14, 2008, my life changed before my eyes: I was told I was in early menopause. It all started a couple of weeks early. I was having hot flashes and dizzy spells- as well as some other "girlie" issues that you can probably guess. I was used to the hot flashes 2 years ago when I was on clomid. But they had stopped once I stopped the medication. So when they reappeared, I was a bit miffed. So I made an appointment for my annual "girlie" exam. When I told my doctor about my recent symptoms- he raised an eyebrow (literally- it was kind of freaky!). He said he wanted to run a blood test, not to worry it was only a slim chance. "Slim chance for what?" I asked. "Premature Ovarian Failure". Well sir. I’d never heard of such a thing. He said my results maybe in Friday, but possibly Monday.

So, I race home to my beloved Internet and do a search. My mouth dropped. The symptoms of this condition mirrored what I was going through. But my doctor said "SLIM CHANCE!- It might just be high blood pressure". On my hands and knees I begin to pray like crazy for high blood pressure. WHO prays for high blood pressure? A girl who is NOT ready for "the change!"
Friday came and went without a call. That means a whole weekend of wild wonder. Monday finally roles around and again no phone call. Okay- now I’m getting miffed again. WHY is this taking so long? Tuesday morning- I make the call. The doctor is in surgery and will call me this afternoon. Less than 2 minutes later- he is calling. Do doctors call from surgery if another patient is anxious enough?!?! Apparently not. He had just walked in and call me first thing.

"The news isn’t good. Your FHS is at 66.9. Your ovaries have completely shut down. You are in menopause." Silence… If I was in the right state of mind- I might have heard the crickets chirping. Without realizing what I was saying, I said "So my chances of having a kid?". My doctors was very sincere in saying that the window just closed. He mentions something about hormones and my pharmacy. A hot flash is coming on… We hang up. I sit at my desk for a moment then send out an email to my team about the conversation that just took place. My boss emailed if I was okay- I relied simply, with only one word: "NO". One of my coworkers was there in an instant and just held me as I whaled. Then my boss sent me home….

Telling my hubby. He knew something was up when the door opened. I walked in and fell into his arms. I apologized for not being able to give him kids. He apologized for not giving me kids sooner. We both said the other didn’t need to apologize. We then look at the dog (Maple) and say "Well, you’re the kid!"

I talked to my Dad for a while, as my Mom was out. I talked to Mom later and then took Maple to the dog park. I will never forget that afternoon as long as I live. It was a gorgeous afternoon and Maple was as happy as… well as happy as a dog free to run around with other dogs! I sat in a chair and took it all in. It was very surreal- almost poetic. Words cannot really describe my calmness that afternoon. I was to learned later that ALOT of people where praying for me during those moments… (Thanks to all!)

When I got home, my hubby was just getting home as well. We talked for a little bit, then Mom called. She and Dad wanted to take us out to dinner. We dined at the Cracker Barrel then had dessert at DQ. It was really nice. My parents couldn’t have children. Both my brother and I were adopted. They knew our agony… they knew our pain.

The hormones. Before dinner we ran by the pharmacy and got my HRT (hormone replacement therapy). It looks alot like bc pills in the little circular container. So I dialed up my day and dispensed my first pill. Last night I took my second pill. No marked changes in the first 36 hours.

These past few days have been heart wrenching. A friend emailed me and told me how "brave" I was to share my story so openly. I didn’t think of myself as brave. I felt rather like a beat up wimp. I’m normally very optimistic and happy- so a marked change in me is very noticeable. I told me story as it was unfolding so that people would know and I wouldn’t have to tell it 50 million times. So, here is my story in it’s entirety.

Any advice for me?

im 25 and haven’t had a period in about 2 years. my fiance and i are trying to get pregnant. we have been trying for 4 years. i have gone to my gyno and she ran all the blood tests she could and did a pelvic ultrasound all of which came out normal. and she wanted to stick me on birth control pills. i am charting my bbt again so i can take it to an re that we have decided to see in 6 months. i have charted b4 but with no periods i felt it was pointless. anyways my question is will progesterone cream help me have a period? and i know it doesn’t make u ovulate, that i would need clomid for, but could i ovulate on my own once ive had a few periods? even if i don’t im mostly wanting to shed the old lining so that when i begin clomid i have a healthy endometrial lining.thank you to all for any help/advice/experience you can give.

My RE Rx 150mg of clomid and metformin.

Should I use pre-seed to combat the vaginal dryness issues that some woman report with the higher doses of clomid why TTC?
