9dpo huge temp. drop?

Question

My husband and I are TTC #2 I am currently 9dpo I am positive of this because I am using a fertility monitor as well as charting bbt. This morning my temp. went down to just a hair away from my coverline. I've never had this happen before. Has anybody else experienced this? thanks

Answer 1

If your temperature recovers tomorrow, then it could be an implantation dip or it could just be one of those crazy things.  However, if it stays low then you may have an issue with low progesterone in the second half of your cycle.  You will want to speak to your doctor and have your progesterone levels tested at least twice in your luteal phase (time after ovulation) because if you don't have enough progesterone, your body cannot support a pregnancy.  If you've never had it happen before then it's likely that it was a one-off, maybe it was a bad egg this cycle or something was different with your health.  Good luck!!

Answer 2

The same thing happened to me and I am 10 DPO!  I was wondering too...but was told if it stays low AF is probably coming soon, but if it goes up again it is most likely implantation dip.  Good luck to both of us, let's keep our fingers crossed!

EDIT:  I just had my progesterone/estradiol level tested on Friday and got the results yesterday...doc said everything is fine my levels are normal, so the answer below would not explain my case and should not cause you to worry.  Did it go back up today?  Mine did, but only a little just 1/10 below coverline still...thinking it's the dreaded AF coming for a visit. =(
