Hi,
Prodafem is progesterone used for control of prolonged and/or heavy bleeding and is safer over Norethisterone when pregnancy is contemplated, but , the drug must be used at the doctor's discretion. The fertility monitor you are using is meant to detect LH levels and it may be affected by the medicine at higher doses only. The fact could be that you did not probably ovulate this cycle so far. Please get further suggestions from your doctor. Take care.
