Progesterone and pregnancy

Just tested positive 6 days before my period is due.
I do have recurrent miscarraige ( 4+) so I'm under gynaecology and been offered progesterone. Has anyone else had this? I know it helps when you bleed during pregnancy but is there any benefit of taking it before bleeding starts? We've opted to have it early as my last miscarraige was bleeding before I actually miscarried. It was over a weekend so I couldn't get hold of my gp, gynaecology or epu at that time.

Congratulations! and sorry for your losses. I've had miscarriages too.and was given progesterone pessaries during IVF as part of treatment. Progesterone helps keep the pregnancy (in cases it can be saved) Good luck on your pregnancy.
