Thank you for your responses; you've alleviated some of my worries about taking hormone supplements...even though I'm the one who first brought it up with my doctor;)
Thats my drs philosphy too. I asked about them when I changed drs my previous drs had prescribed them and they too said it wouldn't hurt but there is no proven evidence they work either. I had a missed m/c and was on thema dn believe it stopped my body from doing what it should of done natureally
Going on progesterone is good because if you have a sudden drop in your levels, you can m/c and not really know it was because of the levels. I have had 5 m/c's all before 10 weeks and now I am almost 8 weeks and scared. Just knowing that I don't have to worry about my progesterone helps with some of the unanswered anxiety. I too am taking baby asprin. The dr. seems to think the m/c's are chromosome related. Like I said, taking these safe suppliments makes sure that progesterone and clotting aren't the issue.
happy thoughts
My Dr. doesn't know if my progesterone caused my m/c's or not. I haven't tested overly low. His theory was it can't hurt anything and even though he was an RE, not an OB, he did specialize in feritility for many years. So I take it. I am seeing a new OB (also a fertility specialist) on the 26th of this month. I will be asking her about this as well.
I do know that with clomid, they typically won't prescribe it for longer then 6 cycles. I'm not sure what the reason is, although it certainly could be because it hurts long term fertility. I don't know if thats the case with progesterone or not.
I hope that helps a little bit.
