My sister is pg again after one successful pregnancy and 3 mcs. She is now getting progesterone injections each week to help this pregnancy hold.

She's now coming up to week 6 and is having a scan on Tuesday to see if everything is still ok. She's very nervous despite having good strong symptoms and no bleeding.

To save herself too much disappointment at the scan if there's no heartbeat she was thinking of doing a clearblue test the day before. It's one of the ones that tells you how many weeks along you are. Anwyay she didn't know if the progesterone would somehow screw up the test result and mean a waste of money.

Does anyone know if it would?

No progesterone doesn't affect the HCG level detected by the test.

I know its too late for that info but just thought I would answer for anyone else searching.

Hope all went well x
