Here's my question for you: Are you having difficulty with menopause? Are there certain symptoms you're experiencing that made you get your hormone levels tested?
"Acceptable" just means that you are in the normal range -- which means simply that most women in your age group fall between a certain set of numbers in their hormone levels. But one woman's normal may be high for another woman or low for yet a third.
The most important thing we can accomplish through hormone testing is trying to figure out what we need as individuals. It may be that a progesterone level of .69 is not acceptable for you, and that's why I ask about your particular symptoms. Are your other hormones within "acceptable" levels as well?
Let us know and maybe we can find something out for you.
