low progesterone!!!


what are everyone elses progeterone levels like - i am supposedly 4 weeks pregnant - couldnt see muc on scan just thick womb lining. 8 preg test proved i am preg but had bloods done hcg levels are great 1706 two days ago but progesterone levels were only 8.5 meaning i am either having an ectopic pregnancy or miscarrying - read on net of some mums with that still carrying baby to term but my fertility clinic says there is no hope - i am looking to hear of anyone else who has had a similar experience

I got 8.5 progesterone on my 4 weeks scan!
Since then my gyn has put me on progesterone supplement and I am trying to not worry!

Did you have 8.5 at 4 weeks or 8 weeks?

I had a level of 20 on my last preganancy at 4wks, yet I lost that one anyways. This one I am waiting for my results, but I am already taking progesterone 200mg 2x a day in hopes to keep the numbers up.

I definately think that your numbers can come up, but I would ask for progesterone if I were you (just to be on the safe side). Good luck to you!! STICKY BEAN!!!!

not given progesterone as they told me to let nature take its course but 8.5 at 4 weeks is quite low so not holding out much hope for blood results tomorrow

nice to find someone in the same boat - but a real s**t boat to be in. i was told there is no hope but i am bleeding and cramping too. having bloods done tonight - results rushed through for tomorrow morning - hen scan to see if i need d&c or to get rid of ectopic. i have heard good pregnancys from people with progesterone at only 6 which is very very low so have a little hope but told it should be over 20 but over 12 is ok - you need to find out yours. i have almost given up hope, decided to keep taking previous medication as it wont make a difference now - still bleeding cramping etc not heavy or bad but still there - did another preg test today - still positive darker line than first one so thats one good sign i suppose.
