Patient's question:
After stopping the progesterone shot for a week, I have been taking progesterone pills and vitamins diligently. I noticed a very small amount of black discharge, but it has now disappeared. Today, I had a follow-up check, and the baby is normal. The progesterone levels have risen rapidly, dropping from 23.99 to 14.66. Today is 11 weeks and 2 days. They have prescribed another week of progesterone shots. Now I have a placenta, so why is it still rising so quickly? Is my placenta not functioning properly? Can I still protect my baby in the later stages?Doctor's answer:
Currently, in your situation, it is important to actively metabolize progesterone and carefully monitor the condition. The placenta generally stabilizes around 12 weeks and does not decrease further. Pay attention to nutrition, rest, and maintain a positive mood. Ensure sufficient deep sleep and undergo regular check-ups. Starting to supplement with zinc now is beneficial for fetal growth and development.The above advice is for the question "Stopping progesterone injections for a week, taking progesterone tablets." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
