What is the level of progesterone that indicates a miscarriage?

Patient's question:

What will happen if a 22-year-old woman doesn't know? Later, she found out that she was sick. Please ask: How low does progesterone need to be for a miscarriage?

Doctor's answer:

First, you need to know that ensuring the success of the fertilized egg requires sufficient progesterone. Under normal circumstances, progesterone begins to increase daily starting from the 11th week of pregnancy and reaches its peak at 35 weeks. Sufficient progesterone ensures the normal growth and development of the fetus. Generally, when progesterone levels are higher than 20.7 nmol/L, it can lead to fetal demise. Therefore, it is necessary to check progesterone levels regularly. Do not have any psychological stress, maintain a cheerful mood, and pay attention to getting plenty of rest during this period. At the same time, your diet should also be light, avoiding greasy and spicy foods, which will benefit both you and the fetus in your womb.
