I am 39 yo and I have endometriosis and all the painful fun that brings every month. My OBGYN recommended we do Lupron shots to chemically induce menopause. Give my organs a chance to heal.

My hubby and I have been TTC for 5 years now and have had several miscarriages in the process. When she made the reco, I asked that we hold off as we were still not quite ready to throw in the towel and quit trying.

She prescribed me 200mg Progesterone as a compromise. The pharmacy directions say to take one daily. So I have been doing this since November. Last month I finally got some pain relief and had a very light AF. Apparently, I am only supposed to be taking the Progesterone after ovulation. Oops.

So here I sit and my AF is 4 days late. I’ve taken pregnancy tests each day and they’ve all been negative. Google makes me crazy. Some say wait 10 days after ovulation to test. Others say to wait to take the test 14 days past my missed AF.

My miscarriages were all early, so we are thinking my uterus wasn’t being supportive enough. The Progesterone was supposed to help with this element too. The dilemma I find myself in is whether or not I should call this month a wash. Quit the Progesterone effective today OR wait until next Tuesday when the preg test is “more accurate” (due to higher levels of hcg in blood).

Any advice would be appreciated as I feel like I’m trying to navigate this in the dark.

Thanks!
