Progesterone and Betas

Who is getting betas drawn? What does your OB do for low progesterone?

With my last pregnancy, I was prescribed progesterone because it came back with my betas at 9 and then 11. But I had to beg for the script because my OB personally believes that it does not change your levels and if you're going to miscarry, it won't help. Has anyone else had to deal with an OB that feels this way??

Part of me wants to ask for betas and then the other part of me doesn't want to stress over them. But then if I didn't do everything to help my pregnancy be successful, I know I'll beat myself up about it!! :

Oh and I LOVE my doctor, I know he means well I am just stressed!

    My Dr wasn't even going to test my progesterone my last pregnancy but I asked. They told me there really isn't any proof supplements help, but they can't hurt so they tested and supplemented me.

    Just got my beats and progesterone tested yesterday. I went on supplements with my last 3 pregnancys. My guess is I will be on them again.

    I had my first beta drawn yesterday, but my doc refused to order the progesterone levels. I don't know why, but I know he doesn't believe there is much evidence supplements are worth doing.
