I'm really confused right now. My pregnancy test came back negative after doing IUI, but I still haven't gotten my period. Should I stop taking progesterone, or is there something else I should consider?

If your pregnancy test is negative after IUI and your periods have not started, it is safe to stop taking progesterone. Progesterone is usually prescribed to support early pregnancy, so if you are not pregnant, there is no need to continue taking it.

I'm really starting to worry about my testosterone levels. They dropped from 270 ngdl to 208.83 ngdl in just two months, and I'm not on any medications or lacking vitamins like D or zinc. I've always felt like my hormones are low because I'm just never feeling healthy. With being a beta thalassemia minor, dealing with chronic back pain, low hemoglobin, weak bones, extra chest fat, and metabolic issues, it's a lot. Even a little extra oil or sugar messes with me, and I end up with painful acne. I often take doxycycline for that. Although I look healthy, I get tired too easily and have all the symptoms that come with low hormonal levels. I've noticed endocrinologists don't seem to know much about TRT. What do you think I should do?
