So, as I've tested progesterone this time I will repost the results as promissed, so we can compare body types with hormonal boards.


Progesterone is supposed to be tested one week after ovulation, but as my cycle that month was longer than expected, I didn't test in the right day. I've probably tested before ovulation. But even for the values that the medical laboratory indicate for the folicular phase I still have low progesterone.

Hormone || Result || Reference Values

Progesterone || 36pg/mg || folicular phase: 50-100pg/mg; ovulation: 100-150; luteal phase: 150-450pg/mg

I've also tested E again, Estradiol and Estriol are within ranges but low too. Estradiol is lower than Estriol.

To see if I'm E or P dominant lets check the ratio between them.

"Estradiol Conversion Factor: pg/ml x 3.671 = pMol/L
Progesterone Conversion Factor: pg/ml x 3.18 = pMol/L"

So, converting to moles
E 3,0 x 3.671 = 11,013pMol/L
P 36 x 3,18 = 114,48pMol/L

114,48:11,013= 10,39 = 10

My P:E ratio is 10:1 when the range is from 20: 1 to 170:1. So I suppose I'm E dominant and have very low progesterone. I have a pear-shaped body with big bum, legs, small waist, small rib cage and between small b and average b cup, depending the weight.
