Ectopic and Progesterone levels

Hi everyone!
So most of you know i had a previous ectopic June 09, and my progesterone never got over 12 I believe..I cant remember if I was on suppositories or not at that time..
So now that im preggo again, I have a higher risk for another ectopic..so my progesterone went from 4.1 then 8.1 to 14..
so it is going up and Im on the progesterone injections..
My question is if would my progesterone go up on the injections if it was ectopic? Its driving me crazy worrying..lol I just want everything to be ok..
Also I started the shots when it was 8.1 and it went to 14 in 2 days...
Thanks

I looked up my ivf journal and my progesterone on PIO shots alone was 13 at 14 dpo (retrieval) and a week  later on the same injections it went to 35 (due to placenta producing progesterone).  If you stay on shots and next beta you see progesterone increasing, that means your placenta is doing what it supposed to.

Fingers crossed for your little bean!
