Take it from someone who quit an antidepressant cold turkey-I was only taking it for 6 months, so I thought I would be ok-I was SO wrong. Please talk to your Dr first.
When Are Progesterone Levels Checked? Your progesterone level is usually checked six to eight days after you ovulate (about day 21 of a day 28 cycle). This is because progesterone levels rise following ovulation, peaking five to nine days after ovulation. This is known as your luteal phase.
During the menstrual cycle, when an egg is released from the ovary at ovulation (approximately day 14), the remnants of the ovarian follicle that enclosed the developing egg form a structure called the corpus luteum. This releases progesterone and, to a lesser extent, oestradiol. The progesterone prepares the body for pregnancy in the event that the released egg is fertilised. If the egg is not fertilised, the corpus luteum breaks down, the production of progesterone falls and a new menstrual cycle begins.
