Similar to Fran's question on Progesterone falling

Hi, my question is similar to Fran's (below a couple posts) but with a different twist. I'm 5.5 weeks. Unlike the previous poster, I'm STILL on progesterone supplements, about 400 mg per day.

My first progesterone level on July 18 was 90.7. (yippee!) My second, on July 24, was around 40 or so. (yikes!) My hcg on July 18 was 211. My hcg on July 24 was 1750 or so (more than doubled).

The nurse says that progesterone "will do this" and that's it's perfectly normal. Having had a m/c, I'm very concerned and wonder just how typical this is.

After reading Fran's post, I'm even more curious. I could see my level dropping if I got off the supplements, as she did, but I'm still on them, so I'm even more worried. I did take the test right before my next dose, so maybe I was lower at that point??

Thanks for enduring yet another progesterone question!!!
