Low Progesterone Related to my Miscarriages and Chemical Pregnancy?
I'm so curious if the reason for my 2 previous miscarriages and recent chemical pregnancy were at all due to having low progesterone. Does anyone else think the same? Anyone else had miscarriage and had low progesterone?
I just looked it up my medical history to see and here is the info from my two pregnancies...
My 1st pregnancy was:
4/7/15 - HCG 136, Progesterone 6.0
4/10/15 - HCG 455, Progesterone 9.8
4/13/15 - HCG 1,547, Progesterone 8.7(was put on progesterone pill daily at this point that he said I'd need to take until I was starting 2nd trimester)
5/1 - HCG 73,743, Progesterone 33 (had u/s done on 5/1 - no heartbeat, had D&C couple days later)
2nd pregnancy:
10/23/17 - HCG 80, no progesterone tested
10/25/17 - HCG 190, Progesterone 14.3
10/27/17 - HCG 479, Progesterone 13.1 (went down a little - asked dr about it, he said as long as it's above 10, it's within normal limits and no supplement needed)
11/1/17 - HCG 5,627, Progesterone 13.0 (went down a smidge... questioned doctor again and still said no progesterone supplement needed? Tried to fight him on it and feel I should've stuck to my gut.)
Now, I'm thinking if I took progesterone, it could've helped me keep the 2nd pregnancy... what do you all think? I think I should start taking progesterone cream starting this cycle!

If you are going to use progesterone cream I believe you are supposed to wait until after you Ovulate. This will add to the progesterone your body is making during your luteal phase. If you take it before you O I'd worry that it could mess up your cycle since you want estrogen and LH to dominate in your follicular phase. I would make sure you are pinpointing your O day before you start using the cream. If it was me I'd present this evidence to my dr and see if they think the cream is a good idea. Good luck!
