Low progesterone

[Mrskis4]

My doc office called and said my blood work came back and my progesterone levels were "kinda low".   She wants to put me on progesterone suppositories 2x  a day until 12  weeks.   I'm currently 9w 2d.   I don't have any symptoms of low progesterone such as bleeding, spotting,  really tender breasts.   Any one else experience this?  This is my 4th pregnancy and never had an issue with my hormone levels.   Oh and I asked what my hcg levels were and she said they didn't check!!  Isn't that the first thing you check on a pregnant woman??  This is a new doctor for me and I'm not really trusting her right now

From past experiences with miscarriages, you definitely need to take the progesterone if your levels are low because of risk of miscarriage. The sooner the better. Get a new doc if you don't feel confident in this one but take the progesterone in the meantime.

i would get  a new doctor. doesn't matter if your bleeding or not a doctor checks your hormone levels when your around that time.. if the doctor doesnt even take the time to do that then would good would it do.. they usually check your levels to make sure you match with your pregnancy. good luck

Get a second opinion

At 9 weeks pregnant I don't see why they would check your hcg levels especially since, as you say you aren't spotting.

Change doctors if you like.  Did she give you a number, on the progesterone, or just say "sorta low?"
