HCG Trigger than an HCG Booster, rather than starting progesterone right away?? Why?

Hi ladies! It has been a while since I have posted here. I hope this is ok. I went through a lot to get my 1st so I hope it is ok to post here. 

 I did clomid days 3-7, injects, and trigger shot with TI vs IUI this time. I was just wondering if anyone knew why an HCG Booster is supposed to be given instead of starting the progesterone right away. Just wanted to see if anyone else has gone through this protocal. 

 TIA!!

    I am doing an HCG booster rather than progesterone during my 2ww but will start progesterone if I get a BFP. I never really asked why, I trust my RE so I just do what he prescribes.
    Me: 33, Hypothalamic Amenorrhea, DOR (AMH .35), DH: 38, Borderline low morph
    5/09- Off BCP, 5/09-9/09- No period, 9/09-9/10- Lots of Tests & accupuncture
    10/10 and 11/10- 2 rounds of Menopur + TI= BFNS
    12/10-IUI #1 Menopur = BFN
    1/11- IUI #2 Menopur = BFP, 2/11 missed mc at 9 weeks, D&C
    5/11- Operative Hysteroscopy to remove uterine septum
    6/11- IUI #3 Menopur = BFP, 8/11 missed mc at 11 weeks, D&C
    1/12- Lap and Operative Hysteroscopy to remove uterine septum (again) & scar tissue
    2/12- Stint Removal, 3/12 repeat SHG and HSG- showed scar tissue blocking right tube
    4/12- Operative hysteroscopy (again), RE said he can now see right tube (yay!)
    5/12- Stint removal, 6/12 repeat SHG and HSG-both tubes are open!
    8/12- IUI #4 Bravelle = BFN
    9/12-IUI #5 Bravelle = BFN
    1/13- IVF #1, micro-flare protocol, 7R, 6F, 5dt of 2 AA embryos, 1 to freeze = BFP
    Beta #1: 176, Beta #2: 422, EDD 10/8/13- it's TWINS!

    Hi, I'm sorry you have to be here again. I'm in the 2ww of FET#3 and I've had an hcg booster on ET day in addition to progesterone supps. My RE said it doesn't do any harm and it can only help.

    I know you probably didn't do it on purpose, but a pic and siggy warning would have been nice.

    Good luck!
