Into (again) and low progesterone

in TTC After a Loss
We are back to TTC after a loss at 5-6 weeks this time. DH is 26 and I am 28 and we have no children. We had another loss at 8 weeks in August. I had a hormone panel run before this loss and it has come back with low progesterone. Has anyone else experienced multiple losses and then found out the cause was low progesterone? My nutritional therapist is going to put me on a natural progesterone support supplement after ovulation each cycle and I am to continue it after my BFP. I am going to run this by my obgyn tomorrow and see what he says.

    I had low progesterone when pregnant last time, but it wasn't clear if that was a cause of my mc or a indication that it was pending. Sorry for your loss.

    Sorry for your losses. I spoke to my RE about low progesterone, as it was a concern of mine due to breast feeding during my preganancy that ended in loss. Her explanation was that most progesterone issues say more about the quality of the egg/ovulation or the embryo (if you are pregnant) than being independently a "progesterone problem". Was your low progesterone result from when you were pregnant or before?

    With that said, my RE still put me on progesterone during my TWW saying that it can't hurt.

    Thanks,  ladies. Hoping for the best for all of you too. I should have noted that my low progesterone was tested during a non-pregnant cycle. So I don't think it would correlate to an indication of an impending miscarriage. Hopefully my doctor is knowledgeable on this!
