I got the rest of my bloodwork resuls

My cd3 test for TSH, FSH, LH came back normal.
Last month my 7dpo test revealed Low progesterone.
I asked the nurse what my next step will be and she said the dr. didn't mention a follow up Chat Icon but I can call back in a few days. I feel like my dr. office does not care. Is it just me being anxious? If my progesterone is low, then this cycle would be wasted without treatment for low progesterone, correct? Would you wait for your dr. or would you make an appointment to see an RE?

I would be concerned--he should at least prescribe you progesterone supplements. Although that is sometimes like putting the cart AFTER the horse. There is a reason why the progesterone is low. You should probably get an endometrial biopsy. This will check your lining after O to see if it is the correct thickness. My Dr said someitme clomid can help you to have a stronger O therefore increasing progesterone and thickeneing your lining adequately for implantation.

I dealt with low progesterone and I just went through my regular OB.
I would feel the same as you-another wasted month if I waited. I remember having to wait-it felt like an eternity.
I'd call the Dr. and ask whats next. For me it was clomid once we knew about the low progesterone.

Re: I got the rest of my bloodwork resuls

When my progesterone was low after an IUI my doctor gave me progesterone suppositories and now following any subsequent IUI I use progesterone suppositories the morning after the IUI until the end of the cycle. The progesterone is what helps the fertile egg implant! You need that! Did they tell you your number??

ETA: I didn't even realize that you're not seeing an RE. How long have you been trying? So was this cycle a natural one?
