low progesterone

had blood tests and found out my progesterone levels were 4. The minimum accepted level in uk is 40 to go ahead with the FET. I took 2 cyclogest pessaries / day and 1 progesterone injection called prolutex. (Intramuscular). What have I done wrong?

I don’t think you have done anything wrong, you have taken the medication advised to you.

My progesterone levels were 29.9 day before transfer and then day of transfer it dropped to 19.9. I was then advised to take cyclogest pessaries twice a day and Lubion injection twice a day, whereas before I was only taking Lubion once.

Speak to the clinic to see if you need to up your dose before your transfer takes place. Wishing you all the very best 💕🤞🏽

you are so kind, thank you so much.

Spoke to the doctor and said to go on cyclogest 3/day + 1 lubion. I wanted to know why this has happened and he couldn’t give me an answer.

my doc also said the same to me. That’s the hard thing about these situations, we never get the answers that we want! Take care xx
