LOW Progestrone!!!

in 1st Trimester

Hi all,

I had my first blood draw on saturday and the hcg level came back at 1,741 and the second blood draw 48 hours later came back at 5,117. So it moret han doubled.. My progesterone came back at 10.5.. On the low end.. The Dr. wants me to come in tomorrow for a sono to see what she can see and discuss supplements. Keep in mind i am having a sono done bc i am consider high risk as i had a miscarriage in jne at 7 weeks and one in november with twin blighte ovums. Should i be so worried, do supplements bring this number up to where it should be...

    I was on Endometrin, a sup that I took 3 times a day until 14 weeks.  They never redrew my blood because the progesterone from the sups can't be dectected from your blood stream, if that makes sense.  The sups do make you sleepy and have nasty discharge.  Let us know what the doctor says.

    1 week after my IUI my prog. was 7.9 I started Endometrin right away and when my first + beta draw came, it was 29. I am staying on it until sunday, 10w

    Is 10.5 really low.. Am i at threat for another miscarriage. I don't think i could handle that again.. How long does it take a supplement to get your levels up. And i hate having transvag sono's they always make me spot for almost 2 days afterwards.. I am so scared...Tongue Tied

    My doctor put me on the supplement in my 6th week.  I had one day of spotting and my level was 19.6 and she still felt it was needed.  I take an oral supplement 2 times daily, so no messy issues for me.  I will stay on them until the 10th week which happens to be a week from Friday.  I have very severe side effects from the meds, but I don't care just as long as this baby sticks.  I have talked to many women who have taken this supplement and it seems as if many dr's magic # for taking it is different.  I work in the hospital and one OB said she only puts her pts on it if they are below 15.  Well I am above that and my dr felt it was a good idea.  Congrats to you and here's to a H&H 9 months!!
