Clomid is a drug that stimulates ovary function.  Progesterone is a hormone that helps pregnancy.  I also had a mis-carriage at 10 weeks.  When I started to have problems with the pregnancy, my progesterone levels were tested and they were VERY low.  Probably causing the miscarriage.  I have had two successful pregnancies since, but both times had to be on progesterone to help the pregnancy survive.
