I have been on progesterone suppositories (200 mg a day) since 3 DPO.
At my 11 DPO bloods, hCG was 32 and progesterone was 39.17. My doctor said my progesterone was fine and I didn't need the suppositories. She said to slowly wean off them, as they are giving me horrible contact dermatitis and inflammation, and there was no reason to keep suffering.
Two days later hCG was 138 but progesterone wasn't rechecked. Now, at 18 DPO, 5 days after I started weaning of the progesterone, my hCG is 1442 but progesterone is 35.56. I'm kinda freaking out. My understanding is that progesterone suppositories don't affect serum levels of progesterone, so why would my progesterone be dropping?
