Question about levels

tashy88

According to my last period i am 6w 1 day pregnant. I had a miscarriage 14 months ago so when my pregnancy was confirmed by the doctor he ordered me to have blood work done which was 28.20 and had to go back 6 days later and it went down to 23.36 so he has ordered me to take 200mg/day supplement. i have no bleeding/cramping or anything unsual going on. Just wondering if this has happened to anyone else and if it worked out for the best. Thank you

200 mg of what? Progesterone?

What levels exactly? I presume you mean progesterone? If so your levels are not low, being on progesterone does no harm I was on suppositories till 16 weeks my level was 8 when I was tested at 4 weeks pregnant, I'm currently 34 weeks

Oh yes sorry progesterone

Ok thanks i'm not sure how to take it when it went down 4.84 in 6 days.

Well if it dropped below 10 in that time I would be worried but it's not too low, best to be safe with previous losses though! Fingers crossed it all works out and the progesterone supplements help

They want to check my levels because of my past miscarriage

I had a MC 11/13 my numbers were HCG 27.5 and 6 progesterone. 2weeks later they decreased by1/2 and the next day I had my D&C because I began bleeding. I hope this is not the case for you.
I did end up getting pregnant again and now I am 6 weeks.
God bless and I wish you well.
