    Question Are my progesterone levels too HIGH???

    I got my level of progesterone at 4wks 2 days pregnant, it was 92. That is VERY HIGH for 1st trimester..... I have been doing some reading in here and on the net (sometimes this can be a bad thing )
    and most progesterone levels for pregnancy are this -

    Before pregnancy: 1 to 28 ng/ml
    Conception to 12 weeks: 9 to 47 ng/ml
    12 to 28 weeks: 17 to 146 ng/ml
    28 weeks till birth: 55 to 200 ng/ml


    The article then says "Abnormally high levels of progesterone may indicate you are having twins or more, or it may be a sign of a molar pregnancy. A progesterone test can help monitor the health of the placenta as well as the ovaries during pregnancy."

    I know I'm not having twins as my hcg was only 110, however now i'm a bit confused at this finding!!! lol
    I'm getting another BT done on Monday anyway. GP never mentioned anything about my levels she just told me what they were. It's me that decided I want a 2nd BT done out of curiousity to see how my levels are going......
    ETA - I'm a bit padantic sometimes hehe
