I've been on progesterone supplements for my pregnancies, but it seems the OB isn't concerned unless it's below 10 I think? Wishing you a sticky and healthy 9 months! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/progesterone-levels-4#post-2333800 Mon, 26 Oct 2015 10:47:40 +0000 pachamama 2333800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sadieloo: I'll be thinking of you! Don't put too much emphasis on Prog levels :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/progesterone-levels-4#post-2333084 Sun, 25 Oct 2015 16:33:54 +0000 Sadieloo 2333084@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@avivoca: Thanks! How are you? It's been a long time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/progesterone-levels-4#post-2333083 Sun, 25 Oct 2015 16:33:27 +0000 Sadieloo 2333083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pachamama: Congrats on your healthy pregnancy and thanks for sharing. I spoke to a nurse at my reproductive endocrinologist's office and she actually said that they don't treat progesterone unless it's under 9. Let's hope this one sticks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/progesterone-levels-4#post-2333021 Sun, 25 Oct 2015 14:31:25 +0000 pachamama 2333021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sadieloo: my progesterone was also very low,I believe 18. My doctor told me what I eat could affect it and the progesterone test is not a reliable indicator of baby's "stickiness". I would not stress. I am 25 weeks pregnant with a healthy baby boy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/progesterone-levels-4#post-2332275 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 21:48:33 +0000 avivoca 2332275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sadieloo: Hey, congrats on your pregnancy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/progesterone-levels-4#post-2332237 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 20:54:50 +0000 Sadieloo 2332237@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Tidybee: yes, hi stranger! Thanks for sharing your experience. I will have to call them back tomorrow. I've read the research supporting the use of progesterone is mixed, but it can't hurt, right? And congrats on #2!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/progesterone-levels-4#post-2332203 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 20:19:03 +0000 Tidybee 2332203@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sadieloo: umm hi stranger!!!!<br /> I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I too had a few losses n between 1 and 2. My progesterone was always low...the highest it ever was was 13 with my now 3 month old. And they put me on supplements until 12 weeks so I would definitely advocate for yourself and push for the progesterone. It can't hurt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/progesterone-levels-4#post-2332152 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 18:54:38 +0000 Sadieloo 2332152@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsKRB: Thanks for sharing! I asked my nurse and have yet to hear back. At the end of the day, this is their business so I suppose I should trust them. Then again, if there is something I can do to help me out, I want to know! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/progesterone-levels-4#post-2331995 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 15:59:54 +0000 MrsKRB 2331995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It seems like it could be on the lower side, but I'm not a doctor! I think my doctor said anything over 15, ideally 20. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/progesterone-levels-4#post-2331962 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 15:43:59 +0000 Sadieloo 2331962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Truth Bombs: Yes - that seems to be the prevailing wisdom on the internet. I think my progesterone was on the lower side with my son too, so I am hoping that it is just my "normal" and hopefully the nurse will get back to me ASAP! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/progesterone-levels-4#post-2331955 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 15:34:42 +0000 Truth Bombs 2331955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My doc likes to supplement progesterone if you are below 20. Some docs supplement below 17/18. So at 14, I do think a supplement would be a good idea. But your beta numbers are awesome so that's positive news. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/progesterone-levels-4#post-2331911 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 15:02:09 +0000 Sadieloo 2331911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hi wise mamas! Looking for personal experiences (ideally positive ones) and words of wisdom. I miscarried in the spring and am finally pregnant again. I'm a bit paranoid this time around and am being followed by an RE. Had bloods taken today and my betas increased from 868 to 16,496 in a week (I'm about 6 weeks) but my progesterone dropped from 20 to 14. Isn't this low? I asked whether it would be good to go on progesterone and nurse has yet to get back to me. </p>
