Hi everyone.

After my initial testing with my fertility clinic, I had my follow up consultation with the doctor today.

I have a short luteal phase and my Proov tests keep showing low progesterone, which is what prompted my decision to go to a fertility clinic so soon.

She laid out three options: (1) no treatment, (2) <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a>, or (<a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a>). I want oral medication, especially considering that all of my and my husband’s tests have come back good. She explained oral medication alone doesn’t help from the “male” side of things and for what it costs, you may as well to <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a> vs. just “timed intercourse”.

Can anyone share if they have been faced with a similar crossroads? Anything that you’ve done to boost progesterone naturally? Should I seek a second opinion? …words of encouragement? Why is this so difficult already? 😭
