7/13 Beta 23  and Progesterone 1.1

7/16 Beta 16

Does the low progesterone worry you too? Sorry my OB/gyn is keeping me hanging!

ETA: I don't know why the bump posted before I was done and twice.... weird sorry!

    The low progesterone does not worry me. Your progesterone goes up after ovulation. The drop in progesterone is what triggers AF. The fact that you just m/c'd recently and haven't ovulated since likely explains the low progesterone.

    I am sorry that your betas seem to be going down so slowly though. Sad

    How many DPO was your beta? My only guess is that you were already in the process of miscarrying, so your progesterone started dropping. Second beta seems to indicate.

    Oh yes, this too. I obviously didn't pay close attention to the timeline here. You most likely experienced a CP, but I don't know when in your cycle you got your BFP.

    The 1st lab was 22DPO when I started miscarrying. I had another beta drawn yesterday but I haven't gotten the results yet.

    I've tried to learn as much about progesterone as possible but I'm still lost. Would it be that low that quickly?

    Yes. It likely dropped before you started bleeding.
