Nervous- Prometrium & fluctuating progestrone levels

Hi,

I am just a little over 9 weeks pregnant and worried. My Dr. put me on Prometrium at 6 weeks, because my progestrone levels had slightly decreased. They went down to 27, which I know is still not considered dangerous. Once I started taking the Prometrium my levels have risen each week, until this week. My levels have went from 67 to 49. The Dr. just increased my dose, but I can not help but worry. I lost a baby last year and this is now my second pregnancy. Has anyone taking Prometrium and had levels go up and down? I am hoping to hear some positive. I also have thyroid disease and also found out this week that my levels are off, so that dose has been changed as well- Not sure if the 2 relate or not. Thanks.

  • Not sure if this helps but my RE said p4 levels are nothing to worry about till they are below 10..Mine went from 20 something to 10 around 8 weeks..I was put on progesterone suppositories till the end of my 1st tri and now am 27+ weeks! I have no idea if my p4 levels went up and down b/c they only told me if they were "ok"..My RE didn't want me to obsess about the numbers after having 2 m/cs..GL!

  • Thanks for your comment! My Dr has assured me that everything is ok- but you know how it is- Cant help but worry. I just went to get another blood test to check the levels again today, so hopefully they have increased. I wish you lots of luck with your pregnancy.
