Patient's question:
Progesterone 16.91 HCG 22179.5I'm not sure how far along I am in my pregnancy? The doctor who did the ultrasound said it's been 45 days. The doctor mentioned my progesterone is a bit low and suggested I take progesterone, but I don't like taking medication. I took it once and got dizzy and felt mentally foggy! I'm planning to stop taking progesterone. Is that okay? Can anyone advise me?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is essential to treat the progesterone deficiency that occurs after pregnancy with oral progesterone. If you experience dizziness after taking the medication, it is recommended to reduce the dosage to recover. There are many triggers that can cause luteal dysfunction, and patients need to seek medical attention promptly. It is advisable to go to a reputable hospital for treatment. Pay attention to the development of your condition and avoid self-treatment. Additionally, focus on self-care, maintain a balanced diet, and keep clean. Best wishes for your recovery!
