Low Progesterone levels? So worried.

[foreva*your*mummy]

I cannot add anything else, I think all the other ladies have given you great advice.
I just wanted to wish you the best and hoping you get some great news with your scan.

Results back today and progesterone has gone from 22 up to 35. Dr said to increase to 3 pessaries per day and has given me a script for stronger ones once this lot has finished.

My HCG has gone up from 908 on 9/8 to 2990 on 13/8. The Dr said this looks good, but I'm worried as it looks a good increase but it was actually FOUR days between tests... Why do they say it should double? Mines going up, slowly.
My hcg history is:

24/7 - <2
2/8 - 193
4/8 - 280 (It was the day after this I saw my Dr and she actually told me this was not a viable pregnancy, assuming I was 5-6 weeks, the numbers low and not doubling, she said it was an early miscarriage, and that this is usually due to chromosome abnormality. She said I would need a D&C and to come back in with my dh. She did have me do another BT though and thats when dh and I were shocked when she said the number had gone up, which was the next one)
7/8 - 508
9/8 - 908
13/8 - 2990

So I keep thinking about what she'd said prior, it was something along the lines of "nature weeding out the unhealthy pregnancies". Her wording was much better, but I didn't hear much after miscarriage. Obviously babies are born with 'abnormalities', and those pregnancies progress 'normally', so I don't really understand the logic. My youngest child has a developmental delay, and there was nothing within that pregancy that indicated it. This was years ago before I was diagnosed with PCOS or struggled with fertility, so I never had HCG checked or monitored back then. I just wish I had more information, what do these levels mean, what has been the experience of other women with this pattern etc. My gp is obviously limited with information I guess. I am going with an obstetrician this time but I don't see her until I'm 10 weeks... I've compared this to my experience with midwife care (my two older children were born in a birth centre setting), back then they didn't even see me until 15 weeks. I tend to thrive on information and I feel very in the dark, I do have my u/s tomorrow, and I guess I'll know more then...

I know of a woman whos HCG levels didnt double/ triple as they should. All continued to progress along with the HCG levels not rising in a 'text book' way. She now has a child from that pregnancy. the ultrasound will be able to tell you much more than you know now. Hang in there, at the moment there really isnt a lot that you can tell from the results you have

Ladyrose- Hun those levels are fine!! If you type in hcg doubling calculators you can use that to see roughly how much they are doubling within a timeframe. I typed yours in (because I'm anal lol) and your last three results were doubling every 55-57 hours...that's in a normal timeframe! For levels under 1200 a timeframe of 31-72 hours is expected, levels between 1200- 6000 it's 48-96 hrs and levels over 6000 96+hrs.
Your levels are perfectly fine IMO!
Big hugs and good luck tomorrow xxx
