Less than 10 days from ovulation to onset of cycle. If that doesn't occur, there is enough progesterone. The way normal lab values are ascertained is to take 100 normal people and do the test on them. Then the value of the 5th highest is declared as the low end of normal and the value of the 95th highest is consideredd the upper end of normal. So we have to remember that 5% of NORMAL people will have below normal values and 5% of NORMAL people will have above normal values.
