1st Trimester

Very low progesterone and slowly rising betas

Good morning. I am currently 6 weeks pregnant and this is my third pregnancy. Last week I went to the doctor because I was spotting and had cramping. Found out I have a sub hematoma, which could be the cause of the spotting. Also my blood work showed a progesterone level of only 5.5! I have had my bets checked and the first one was 2100 and two days later 2800. I go back on Monday for another sonogram and find out results from my betas on Friday. I did have a sonogram at five weeks and we could see the sac. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this and if it turned out good or bad. Also I am on progesterone supplements.

Re: Very low progesterone and slowly rising betas

  • To be honest the fact that your betas did not double is discouraging and combined with your low progesterone it doesn't look good. I gave heard of low rising betas ending with a good outcome. I'm sorry.... Good luck.
  • I have low betas too. I am on progesterone supplements too, I have been since 3dpo. I am waiting to hear about todays beta still. I we can wait this one out together. My first at 14dpo was 42.5 and my second at 16 was 58, waiting for todays at 18dpo and praying everything is alright. I have been reading stories of low betas going both ways. Good Luck!! Please KUP. Good luck! I hope we both get some great news soon :)

  • My doctors wife had slow rising betas and went on to have a healthy girl. I pray you will have a happy outcome. I was a bit optimistic yesterday and today until I saw some pink blood. I just do not think this pregnancy is going to be viable. This pregnancy was a shock at first then I started getting excited. Now I am just left feeling hurt and confused. I really wish you all the best and keep me posted
  • Dr called yesterday and said hog is now at 3100. Still going up but not doubling. No cramping bit very light spotting yesterday. Nothing today. This is such a roller coaster, just wishing if I do miscarry it goes quick.
  • Hey everyone. I know it's not exactly related to post but... My doctor's office gave me a bunch of samples for endometrin (progesterone supp) and then told me to take it for one week more. I stopped it already. Does anyone want the medication?

    PM me and I'll send you my email.

    GL! We've seen posts where the betas run low in the beginning and everything goes well.

  • Trying to be optimistic and realistic at the same time, lol. Sonogram this morning will show a lot. I should be able to see an embreyo and heartbeat.
