Progesterone

I am 6 weeks preg, I had blood drawn this past tues, which at the time I was 5 weeks 5 days.  The nurse called me back today & said my progesterone level was a little low at 9.5 should I be worried?

that is pretty low - are they putting you on progesterone supplements?   mine was 11 and they put me some twice a day.  they want it to be around 20.

yes i've been on progesterone supp once a night since we find out I was preg & now they are putting me on something to do in the morning also.

well i hope that ups it!  i hate the feeling i get while on progesterone - but it is all for a good cause!  when are you getting tested again?

[ttcour1st]

Thanks, I hope so too.  I haven't really had anything side effects from what I've been on except for back pain.  I go back this coming Tues the 24th to get a 2nd ultrasound & see the Dr.  So Im sure they'll test again then.

At 14dpo and with a positive preg test my prog level was 11.1
My doc put me on 400mg nightly until I was 12 weeks along.  9.5 is very low so it is good they are adding addl meds. :)
