If you found out you were pregnant 4 weeks ago you would not be 5 weeks.
All that aside, you need to insist on progesterone supplements or you will probably miscarry. Progesterone is necessary to sustain pregnancy. It keeps the uterine
Please tell your doctor to put you on progesterone, prefarably by injections. Low progesterone may indicate that there is a problem which may complicate your pregnancy. Since you had good results previusly, there should be no problem convincing your docotr that indeed progesterone may do more good than harm
