OK I posted this in the infertility boards originally but didn't get much response (thank you to those who did reply!!) and I'm anxious to get more info so maybe "pregnancy" is a better category.
What dose of progesterone were you on?
If you had low progesterone at around 13dpo, what was the outcome?

400mg daily as vaginal inserts. 200mg in the morning and 200mg at night. This resulted in my healthy DS. I was also on low dose aspirin.

I will be taking 100 mg vaginally twice a day. This coming cycle will be my first cycle using it so outcome is presently unknown!

With my first pregnancy I don't remember the specifics but I know I had progesterone shots and ended up with a healthy baby. With my second, my levels were normal. With my third, I had low progesterone throughout the first trimester and spotting (I think around 7 weeks?) for a few days. I took 200 mg orally until 20 weeks and am currently nursing my two week old!

With my first pregnancy, I was put on 100mg 2/day vaginal suppositories. My progesterone at 7dpo had been 8.2, and I was put on suppositories after getting a bfp at 10dpo. Took til 13 weeks and now have a healthy 14 month old. 2nd (current) pregnancy, dr just started me on them automatically this time without testing my progesterone level, but prescribed only 100mg 1/day and baby aspirin. 13 weeks now and just got done with them, yay!

@DesertDreams88: I have VERY low progesterone. (My RE suggested it was due to stress from so desperately trying to conceive FWIW.)
I want to say it was a 4? or 9?
Anyway I took 200mg (2x 100mg pills) vaginally for 12 weeks starting 3 DPO in the month I conceived after 13 cycles.

I spotted for the first 4-8 weeks, my RE also said it might be to cervical irritation due to the vaginal suppositories. Idk. My son was born 3 weeks early but somehow perfectly healthy.
