A little advice if possible?!

Sorry I know I've posted like a lunatic lately!! I spoke with my clinic today and the consultant wanted me to do a progesterone blood test, they've just phoned me and told me it's 17.4 (no idea what this means!) and that he wants me to up the progesterone so I'm on 4X a day. They also want me to have a beta test on Friday, instead of testing at home on Saturday, which is great to know early, but I'm a bit confused as to why they would change it? Anyone else had their clinic change to a blood test?

I have no previous experience but would be interested to hear if anyone has. I was on progestorone injections last time and now they have changed me to pessories Im a bit apprehensive of how they can be as good as injecting straight in to the muscle, hopefully someone has been in your position and can comment on the blood tests side xx
