Question about early miscarriage

Pixiestx · October 2010

I know I haven't been on here lately, but I was hoping someone could help me anticipate what's going to happen here. My beta on monday went up to 31, but yesterday it was down to 16 at 4w3d. Last friday I started on progesterone and the last night I took it was tuesday. So I'm waiting to miscarry and I'm just wondering if anyone has experienced a falling hcg level that low without bleeding (or any real cramping) starting? Could the extra progesterone cause it to take longer b/c I need it out of my system?

I just want this to actually start so we can move on, yet again. I just count myself lucky that this time, the time from when I got a bfp to finding out it wasn't going to work out was 4 days instead of 4 months.

I once had a beta of 2 without bleeding (after a CP). I'm sure you just need a day or two more to get the progesterone out of your system. I'm sorry, again, that you're going through this.

I'm sorry Pixie. I think the progesterone can take some extra time to get out of your system. When my naturopath had me on progesterone during my LP just for funsies, it would take about 5 days for my period to come after stopping them, and that was with a beta of zero.

I;ve had three of these early losses, one when I was on Progesterone. I think the bleeding started when the beta was about 5 or less (for all three). So a couple of days past the period due date, except for the last one (which came on the day AF was due).

I am so sorry you are going through this.

Thanks girls for the help and support. That eases my worries that nothing is going to happen and I'm going to need the drugs or something to get it to start.
