Hcg increasing but have seen drops in progesterone

Im supposed to be 8w today so havent had an ultrasound yet, but because i had a miscarriage a few months ago I've gotten 3 pairs of labs done to watch hormones. Granted weve been under a ton of stress for various reasons, but my progesterone has dropped from 15 to 11 even with supplements at week 7. Has anyone else had this and still had a smooth/healthy pregnancy? Im trying not to freak out

Progesterone levels rise and drop throughout the day!

You may need progesterone shots or suppositories. Can you ask your doctor what they think?

Thats what i thought. I tried to get my labs done around the same time each time, but this particular time had been at like 430pm vs lunch time the previous times. And the time that prompted the need for supplements had been after an 8am draw on an extremely stressful day. So im hoping i just dont know enough and am researching too much and overanalyzing

That’s usually not a good sign sending prayers but I would demand an ultrasound
