I gave birth to my son 6 months ago (First time ICSI success) but still love to check on your chanel because it feels like the specialty doctor give me a medical grand round weekly. Thank you
I have low progesterone (7 ng/ml at 7 DPO and spotting always starts at ~8 DPO and period arrives a couple days later) and almost bought Proov tests... Luckily, I got pregnant in January our very first month trying again post-miscarriage after taking a low dose of Clomid for the short luteal phase. Currently 21 weeks pregnant! Can feel the baby kicking as I type this. Thank you for making this video! It was very helpful.
Proov got me so stressed with its vague results that I could barely work and lost my peace of mind. Watching this video has really helped. I wish Amazon never recommended the Proov tests to me. Thank you for making this! Wish I had seen this before buying and saved myself a whole lot of stress which atleast has been really shown to affect fertility.
I fell for Proov and it said I did not successfully ovulate that round. I also did the Clearblue 2 most fertile days test and that test showed I was ovulating. 2 weeks later I was pregnant (14 weeks currently) so Proov was a waste of money at the end!
So glad to see this comment. I’ve used them the past 3 cycles at the correct time/as instructed. every time I’m getting negatives even though I get positive ovulation tests and consistent temperature rises. I started my third round of tests today and it was negative again… only now I’m beginning to question its legitimacy 🤦🏻♀️
I just spoke to a reporter who is doing a story about the PROOV test. He is looking for people who have had experiences like yours. If you are interested in talking to him, you can E-Mail him at sblum@inc.com
Pls upload videos reg male infertility issue and about ICSI treatment. Whether healthy baby can be formed with very poor sperm quality, need to know info regarding that
Ordered two Proov Confirmation and the Balance Oil. The test came out "Almost Positive" all four times testing as they instructed (7-10DPP); mean while premom ovulation tests came out as ovulating and BBT tracking confirmed Ovuation. Aday later I get positive pregnancy test.. and i've been going crazy thinking my progesterone levels are super low and they wont hold pregnancy since I kept testing twice after the positive test- so I was using oil and it did raise progesterone in urine to 5.5 but two days later showing 3.1 mean while HCG is going up. Thank you Doctor for showing a the light.
LOL. I see so many people / companies trying to take advantage of infertility patients. It does make me a little crazy. I'll try to keep my contempt in check in future videos
Regarding the “balancing” oil (aka skin cream) … I contacted the company because there is NO accurate “dosage” on the bottle. It simply says “2500mg” in one ounce. Well, fluids vary with viscosity so I emailed (once more) and was told that it’s 1.5mg per drop, that they recommend “10-15 drops 2-3 times a day.” Even though it didn’t label the bottle with how much “progesterone” is in each drop. So dangerous. THEN I emailed about the SOURCE of the “bio-identical progesterone” and they said it’s either derived from soy OR wild yam- NOT CLEAR. If the FDA did clear this (they didn’t), they overtly missed the glaring fact that there was no dosage listed on the bottle and ZERO sourcing mentioned. As a retired medical provider, this is so disheartening as I appreciate clear labeling and transparency on a whole different level Thank you for being brave and speaking about this.
Lets say they use deceptive marketing. Most of the ingredients are those that are found in any prenatal vitamin. People attempting pregnancy should take prenatal vitamins to reduce the risk for birth defect and help with fetal development *However* when they imply that they are for "fertility support" or that certain ingredients are "proven to treat infertility" -- this is not supported by the data. I It is also a violation of the FDA policies about marketing a supplement which state that companies pushing supplements can't claim to treat any disease Finally, Fakespot, which is software that analyzes the authenticity of online product reviews and grades them from "A" to "F" gave this product's reviews a "C" - so you cant trust many of the reviews
Thank you. I wish I never ordered the proov pdg kit. It's caused so much unnecessary stress, I've tested two days, and they're both negative. I had a peak OPK and had ovulation pain

I’m shocked! I’ve spent hundreds on these product trying to find the “optimal level” of ovulation. Thank you for this!
You're so welcome!

Thank you for all of your information Dr ❣️ it's very much appreciated with all of the conflicting and sometimes false information that floats around
Thank you and God bless you Doctor for doing this good work. ❤
Thank you Dr. For all your videos you are so very informative.
Yes that’s so much helpful information Dr. Thank you

You saved me from buying it. Thanks.

Thank you for sharing this. Proov said I didn’t ovulate one cycle but bbt and lh says I did.
I’m terrified because I just bought it and I feel like it’s going to say I’m not ovulating and I feel like I know I am hahahah

I can hear the contempt dripping from your words regarding Proov tests.

All my proov tests strips were negative and I still got my period.
Ahhhh. That Proov test almost got me until I saw the price tag and happily moved on.
Thank you Dr
