Dr. Montgomery, I did have a positive hpt this morning(yeah!!!!), after my temperature spiked 0.2 degrees higher than it has ever been this cycle. Do you think this spike indicates anything about my progesterone level? Is it reasonable to ask my doctor for another progesterone test to put my mind at ease, since I just had one on CD 21?

Thank you so much! Aimee >
