Low progesterone in pregnancy!? Help!

Question

Has anyone experienced low progesterone during 1st trimester? What were your symptoms?

Answer

I wouldnt say there are symptoms, its something found in blood testing. Also, low progesterone causes miscarriages as it regulates the placenta in early pregnancy.  I was put on progesterone suppositories until 14 weeks due to 3 previous miscarriages.  Around 12 to 14 weeks the placenta should take over completely,  and if not you will stay on progesterone. Your doctor should be monitoring your HCG and progesterone levels.

Answer

I didn't have any symptoms, but was told it was low at my first blood draw. So I was put on suppositories till I hit 12 weeks! Now I'm 20 wks!

Answer

Mine is super low without supplements. At nine weeks it was 10. My doctor put me on 300mg suppositories twice daily. I get blood checks every two weeks.
