Re: Crystal and progesterone numbers

[Guest guest]

Hi Crystal...

I'm totally not in the medical field, but I think the 1079 number they gave

you is actually the hcg level. From what I understand, and I could totally

be wrong about this, that's different than your progesterone levels. When I

first got my pro. level tested in late Feb., it was only a 1.8!! That's

LOW!!! My ob said it needed to be at least a 10. He put me on a cycle of

Clomid

(March). We didn't get pregnant that month and then we didn't try in April,

May or most of June due to my hubby's hip replacement surgery.

Anyway...after the clomid my progesterone level shot up to like 15.6 When I

got pregnant

in June, that was without the Clomid, so I think I miscarried at about 5

weeks because I didn't have enough progesterone in my body. The hcg level

numbers are higher numbers, like what you said. Somewhere on line you can find

the

" number chart " where they tell you what your hcg levels should be throughout

your pregnancy.

Hope that helps.

Peace...
