Progesterone Levels update

Here are the nitty gritty details of my progesterone levels through this pregnancy:

Week 5 - 10 progesterone / hcg 1374 (started 200mg injections 2x weekly)
Week 7 - 16.2 progesterone, still level 1
Week 9 - 16.5 progesterone, still level 1 / hcg > 118,000
Week 11 - 19.7 progesterone, still level 1 (added 300mg suppositories 2x daily)
Week 13 - 36.1 progesterone, level 2 (stopped suppositories, continued injections)
Week 15 - 34.9 progesterone, level 2
Week 17 - 46.3 progesterone, level 2 (lowered dose to 100mg injections 2x weekly)

All progesterone is natural, bio-identical.  I much prefer the injections (which my husband gives) to the suppositories (messy and time-consuming!).  Hoping I get to wean off more soon though.  :-)

Care is through my NaPro Doctor and the recommended levels/doses for PCOS (corpus luteum deficiency) patients.  So thankful for them!
