have to double progesterone - worried

[starluck]

I went into my RE this morning for my second beta and to check on my estrogen and progesterone levels.

Beta looked great (numbers in signature) and so did estrogen, so yay! However, my progesterone was low again I was using one suppository in the AM, now I am to bump that up to two suppositories a day, one in the AM and one PM.

I'm worried - what if this second dose isn't enough to keep the baby? Has anyone been through this before?

What was your P4 number, and what dose are you now on?

They didn't tell me my P4 number. I'm on crinone 8%, which is 90 mg per suppository.

Happened to me. At 7 weeks, one progesterone, and then at 8 I was still spotting so they doubled the dose. I was able to stop progesterone after my 13-week scan.

I was put on 2 capsules straight away (am & pm) and was also able to stop them after 13 weeks.

Thanks ladies I'm thankfully feeling much calmer about it now
