Drop in e2 level in early pregnancy

Hi ladies, I have not posted here in quite some time ( I took a bump break following my loss in June) but wanted to see if anyone had any insight into dropping e2 level in early pregnancy? Last week my e2 level was 900 something and yesterday it was 800. My RE office is having me repeat my E2 level again this week because of the drop. They said that the drop was not "significant" but want to make sure it does not keep dropping. I tried to find more info on this but nothing seems to fit my situation so I decided to post. Any info or experience would be greatly appreciated! TIA!

    I had my first beta a week ago yesterday and the second on Monday. My E2 level dropped by 50. I asked my nurse if that was bad because I didn't have that with DS and she said it's not bad. She also told me that levels with a FET take longer to get going and commonly bounce up and down versus a fresh transfer, which is what I had last time and FET this time.

    ETA: my next check is Monday and I'm still on estradiol twice a day.

    Ugh, stupid phone won't let me delete this one since it apparently did let me edit my other comment.
