Hiya!
I’ve just had my 4th chemical since January. I’m charting which indicates I am ovulating and I do have a slight temperature rise after ovulation, so no known progesterone issue that I know of?
I usually lose the pregnancy a day or two after a positive pregnant test/missed period so really really early. But it just keeps happening!
Just spoken to a private consultant who has prescribed me progesterone pessaries to try for 3 cycles.
I wondered if anyone had any success stories of similar please or any helpful advice or knowledge to add on the subject?
Thanks so much for reading

Hi @WillowRose1411 I can't give you any success stories yet but I'm in the same boat - have had 4 miscarriages around the 6 week mark, but did carry on pregnancy to term completely textbook. I'm now on progesterone pessaries and got a BFP on Sunday - sadly I think I'm losing this one too but we live in hope. And there are so many factors beyond low progesterone. Anyway, solidarity, I hope we both get our sticky beans soon.

I have a really short luteal phase 9/10 days and couldn't understand why. Temp used to only drop on day 2/3 of my cycle (not before my period) like it should. After 6 months of ttc i decided to pregnancy test at 10dpo. I had already started my period but I just wanted to check as I'd never bothered doing a pregnancy test before as just assumed if my period came it meant I wasn't pregnant! The test was positive but my period came and I lost it. I then realised I'd probably had loads of chemical pregnancies but just didn't know about them. I saw a consultant privately. I was given progesterone suppositories. It worked straight away and I got pregnant the month following the chemical. Unfortunately that pregnancy was a missed miscarriage and I found out at 11 weeks. I'm hoping to try again soon and will be taking the progesterone again. Good luck x
