169 | Why Your Doctor Missed This: Progesterone Tests That Could Change Everything

Progesterone is essential for sustaining pregnancy, yet it’s often overlooked or dismissed in conventional care. In this episode, I explain why many doctors don’t routinely test or support progesterone, how medical training influences fertility care, and what red flags to watch for.

We talk about self-advocacy, aligning with providers who share your values, and why low progesterone is usually a sign of a deeper root issue. I also share how faith, wisdom, and science work together in healing the cycle and supporting pregnancy.

Episode Highlights:

• Why progesterone is rarely tested early on
• How doctors are trained (and what they aren’t taught)
• When to advocate, educate, or find a new provider
• Why progesterone support often needs to happen before pregnancy
• How faith, wisdom, and science work together in fertility care
