Hi,
I am now 5 weeks pregnant, I had blood tests done 3 days ago and results were: hcg: 174.5 and progesterone 23.7
I had 2 miscarriages before this pregnancy, the first one at 5 weeks (hcg dropped rapidly, so probably a chemical) and the second one was a blighted ovum discovered à 7 weeks (which ended up long and complicated with retained product of conception after misoprostol).
The GP said that my progesterone levels were low and I had to beg him to get some pessaries in case they could help. (he did agree to prescribe some but only for a week and said won't renew it)
I am really confused and disappointed.. I guess my question is did anyone have similar progesterone levels and ended up with a viable pregnancy? What are the chances? Or is it definitely not a viable pregnancy?
I am also not sure if I should take the progesterone pessaries if it will only delay the inevitable!
Please share your experiences, thoughts
With the bank holiday weekend I can't get hold of my GP to ask more questions, and when I called the EPU they said I needed a referral...
Thank you.
