A member asked:

I know i ovulate, i temp. i also get pms symptoms. have 28 day cycle but bleeding has always only lasted 1.5 days. could i have low progesterone?

See OB: Light periods may be associated with a low progesterone level, but the only way to know is have a blood test done to confirm your levels, see your OB Gyne to find out
