FSH levels

I am 42 and have 3 boys, 24, 13 and 20 months (last child with current partner). we have been trying to conceive for about 10 months now. We did have a pregnancy in January 09 but had a missed miscarriage at 11w ( baby stopped growing at 5w3d).
I had my cd 3 FSh level checked last month it was 20.
My progesterone level was checked at 7dpo and it was 56.
Also had u/s at cd 10 and had a follicle measuring 25mm. and Lining was at 18mm.
I just had my cd3 FSH level checked this cycle and it is 25.
I have been taking Homeopathic remedies since cycle day 11 from last cycle. (which was my O day).
I O on my own each month around cd 11 and have a 28 day cycle.
What are my chances of having another baby?
I thought with a progesterone level i had a good Ovulation?
thanks

Thank you for replying.
So why do you say i am a very fertile 42 year old?
Is this because of my progesterone level?
Does the high FSH level mean that even though i am still Ovulating on my own that my eggs are of bad quality?
thanks

You are obviously a very fertile 42 year old. Based on statitics, with an elevated FSH of 25 and your age 42, you have less than 5% chance of getting pregnant. But you may beat the odds since you seem so fertile.
