low progesterone

[Pregos_or_not]

I had my progesterone chkd 3dpt and it was more than 60. Then had it chkd almost 8dpt and it dropped drastically to 8.76. Now I am devastated, this is my 2nd ICSI and from what I understand a progesterone level of atleast 20 or even 10 is required to sustain a pregnancy. This is so horrible. I am just devastated. My doc just asked me to double my progesterone and hope for the best, I have my beta on April 10, but it dosent look good for me.

thanks dear. I was taking 200mg suppositories 3/daily, if wants me to increase 6/daily, 2 at a time. Only thing I can think of is testing day after again. Well my Doc didnt want to chk either but I insisted on it, cuz its my 2nd round.

OH, I'm sorry!  My RE doesn't even check progesterone levels after transfer.... ugh!  Well, double your dose,and hopefully, it will work!  What did he increase the dose to?  Hopefully someone will post a story that will show you it can work!!!
