Patient's question:
Medical history description (onset time, main symptoms, symptom changes, etc.): 37 weeks pregnant, progesterone 11.96, hCG 2370. Currently receiving 40 IU of luteinizing hormone daily, 2 times a day. Is this dose appropriate? How many days should it be administered?Doctor's answer:
Hello, low progesterone is caused by luteal phase insufficiency. Luteal phase insufficiency refers to insufficient progesterone secretion by the corpus luteum or premature luteal regression, leading to poor secretion of the endometrium. For women with fertility requirements, if low progesterone results in difficulty in implantation of the embryo or early pregnancy miscarriage, it is recommended that you visit a specialized hospital for a detailed examination to rule out the cause and receive targeted treatment.
