    Low Progesterone Levels

    Hi, I just wanted to know if anyone has experience anything similar to what I am going through at the moment. I have had two mc this year one at 7.5 wks and one at 5.5 wks, I am now 7 wks pregnant and my OB has told me that my progesterone levels are low. He has asked me to take progesterone pessaries twice daily. At the moment my progesterone level is 38, can anyone advise what the normal range of progesterone should be at 7 wks? And has anyone gone on to have a healthy baby after taking the progesterone pessaires for the first 10 - 12 weeks?

    Any help or advise would be much appreciated, Im a bit worried.....

    Hi Alana,
    My SIL had low progesterone levels and bleeding around 6 or 7 weeks of pregnancy. She was on progesterone gel until 13 weeks. She has a healthy 1 year old. I am not sure what her levels were.
