Is 10.4 A good Progesterone Level to get pregnant?

Answer 1

Yes or no

Yes- If your progesterone level is 10.4 during anytime of a month, you are ready for pregnancy without high risk of miscarriage.

However, you are not supposed to try to get pregnant at this time when PL=10.4. You should still follow the cycle and tell when the best time in a month to get pregnant. Day 15-22 is the best days and progesterone level is declining to be around 3-5 in normal case. Therefore, you may not get pregnant if you try to have sex when your progesterone level is 10.4 (high in a month). Instead, have sex when estrogen level is high and progesterone level is low.
