So my urine test today showed leucocytes but the midwife basically told me I'm probably fine? I mentioned needing the toilet more often too. Should I call my GP just in case?

Hello, I am Dpo 2 today and I have had low progesterone over the past cycles. I tested it with proov. My fertility doctor hasn't tested it yet and therefore hasn't prescribed me progesterone.

I've seriously messed up. I'm not sure why I've prolonged taking it. Just having a 6 month old, pumping out milk all day, cleaning after cleaning and work. It just went over my head.
