high progesterone level early in pregnancy

[clom]

I just found out I'm pregnant after my first cycle on clomid (50mg).  My blood at 4wks after LMP indicated my HCG was 500 and my progesterone 86.  I miscarried back in September and my progesterone was only 15.  Does clomid increase the progesterone this much?  Does a high progesterone level indicate the possibility of multiple births?  My doctor couldn't really explain why the progesterone was so high.  What are reasons for high progesterone this early in pregnancy?

I have Endometriosis and have been on Clomid for 4 cycles.  First 50 mg, second 100 mg, 3rd & 4th 150 mg.  I had an ultrasound on day 13 and several large follicles were found.  My Day 21 Progesterone came back at 120ng/ml.  I went to my doctor the same day I started my period.  My doctor asked me if I was sure I wasn't pregnant, which I was and still am, now on day 12 of next cycle.  Is it possible to have such a high progesterone level and to not have gotten pregnant?  I asked my Dr if I she thought I had been pregnant and all she told me was the statistics of early miscarriage.  Am I to assume that I had a miscarriage?  What is the likelihood that it was twins?  I'm going to see a Reproductive Endocrinologist Wednesday.  Please help!
