Hey everyone went to go today explained everything about the light bleed and doc seems to think it’s a threatened miscarriage. He has suggested I get my hcg levels checked which I will find out on Monday the levels.🙏 And have been referred to EPU for 6 weeks scan fingers crossed everything will be ok. The doc was so lovely and understanding which helped! X
Hey everyone went to gp today. - Fertility Network UK
Hey everyone went to gp today.
Aww that's good that you have an understanding Dr! Could you ask you clinic if you could up your progesterone to see if that helps meantime? Best of luck with your bloods.xx
I’m all ready on 400mg twice a day I don’t think you can go higher than that.. xx and thanks 🙏
You definitely can go higher so I would definitely ask them! I was on 2x400mg of cyclogest a day and that wasnt enough for me!xx
As Cinderella said, asking for extra progesterone is definitely not a bad idea! I’m on 2 x 400mg cyclogest and 1 x lubion shot every day.
More progesterone won’t hurt so it’s worth pushing for, especially as it sounds like your GP is being supportive xx
When do you think I should ask them about the progesterone after the hcg results? Xx
I dont know if your GP is maybe checking your progesterone levels or not but I would ask the clinic you had treatment if you can up your dose.....based on the fact your GP thinks its a threatened miscarriage......provided you have enough meds of course! Another cyclogest will do no harm.xx
Just spoke to my clinic and they said they will speak to the doctor about upping my progesterone she will call back to let me know xx
Good, Im pleased to hear that!xx
Hey forgot to mention the nurse was mentioning lubion?? Have you had this before? Xx
Yes, Ive had lubion....that's what I got added in as my levels werent high enough with just pessaries. Its an injection but you can do this yourself, little bit nippy but just go easy with it and warm the solution up first!xx
That’s what I’m on at the moment! Same as with Cinderella, my body just doesn’t get enough from the cyclogest but the added lubion has worked a treat! Xx
When did they add lubion for you? Xx
Mine was added the day after my transfer. I’m currently 9 weeks and have to continue it until 12th week x
Wow congratulations! Do you think the lubion helped u getting this far? My clinic just rang and they want me to come in Monday for hcg bloods and progesterone. And then Wednesday for more hcg bloods to see if they are getting nice and strong. Then scan on Thursday. 😊xx
Thank you! It’s the first time I’ve ever had it tested but I had an early mc on my first cycle which I think was progesterone related but my old clinic wouldn’t test it. No issues this time so far though!
That’s great they are testing everything. Should hopefully give you some peace of mind ♥️ xx
Awww great news, Im really pleased that you called them!!xx
I had mine from transfer this time as we lost 2 pregnancies and I had my levels tested with my hCG which suggested low progesterone so my clinic added it in.xx
Im so sorry u lost ur pregnancies 😟 have you got pregnant since? Xx
Thank you! No unfortunately not but we hope to try again soon!xx
Well I hope it happens very soon for you xx
Sensible going to the GP! Glad they're going to do HCG levels and an early scan at the EPU. That's good news at least. Happy that your doctor was so lovely. Hope everything's okay. xx
Good news my lovely and well done for going to the GP & EPU centres are fantastic so you will be well looked after xxx 😘 keep positive
