Talk to Gynecologist on Low Normal Progesterone And Periods Stop At Day 3
Asking for Self, Female, 29 years old, Islamabad
Hi, I’m 29 and single. My recent hormone tests showed:
FSH: 5.0
LH: 3.1
Prolactin: 24.8
Day 21 Progesterone: 7.8
TSH: 0.5 (T3 and T4 normal)
For the past 7 months, my periods stop abruptly by Day 3. I also have severe depression before periods, weight gain around the waist, and water retention. I have a history of kidney stress, high uric acid, and recurrent kidney infections, though CBC is currently normal.
What could be the cause, and what treatment options should I consider?
Thank you.

I have been to many doctors and honestly I'm tired of being told 'everything is normal' when it definitely isn't normal for me. I have had kidney issues, kidney stress, gout and water retention. Even now I'm gaining weight when my diet and routine is all the same. I'm a picky eater, I do clean eating, no fast food or extra eating but I'm gaining weight like my body is inflamed. I seriously want to figure out what's wrong.
Oh and also my doctor suggested insulin test, he suspected insulin resistance. I have family history of diabetes and hepatitis.

low progesterone could have been due to anovulatory cycle
