    5 week hormones

    Hi,

    I am new to the forum. I am 5 weeks pregnant after an IVF + ICSI cycle. My HCG @ 5 weeks was 3000 and progesterone is 540. Does anyone know what the high progesterone is indicative of? I have mild OHSS.

    Thank you

    THank you so much. We just had one put back as I am under 35 and fell preg on my 1st IVF cycle but miscarried so the chances of twins were higher for us. After waiting so long twins seem like a good idea but in reality i thought one would do for now

    Just waiting for the scan to see if there is one there...or two! Just wish i knew what such a high prog meant. Guess i will need to be patient!

    Take care

    Hi just popping in to add my tuppence. My progesterone was 340 at my first BT, and was in the 400s for my 3rd. . . hence I was shattered!!! I'm now almost 7 weeks, and still fatigued but not as bad.

    My doc wasn't bothered about the high progesterone, just said it was a good thing cos it meant my body was doing everything to protect the wee one.

    Hope you're not feeling too knackered, and good luck.
