When talking of success rates for any type of infertility treatment, one should bear in mind that the average chance to conceive for a normally fertile couple having regular unprotected intercourse is around 25% during each menstrual cycle. It is estimated that 10% of normally fertile couples fail to conceive within their first year of attempt and 5% after two years. Comparable to normal fertility rates, effective treatments can be expected to have, on average, up to a 25% success rate per cycle of treatment, and may therefore need to be repeated several times before a pregnancy is achieved. Simple ovulation induction to compensate for hormonal imbalances has a very high success rate; more than 80% of women suffering from such disorders are likely to conceive after several cycles of treatment with drugs such as clomiphene citrate or gonadotrophins.

In short, progesterone is a female sex hormone that is secreted by the corpus luteum to prepare the endometrium for implantation of the fertilized egg. Following implantation, progesterone is then produced by the placenta during pregnancy to prevent rejection of the developing embryo or fetus. Therefore, progesterone plays a significant role in reproduction. Progesterone:

Helps create a fertile environment in the womb and promotes the survival of the fertilized egg through healthy implantation. Strengthens and maintains the secretory endometrium which sustains the embryo throughout pregnancy. Prevents the premature shedding of the secretory endometrium (menstruation).

As progesterone forestalls the shedding of the endometrium (where implantation occurs), low progesterone levels - or a significant drop in progesterone levels - during the first several weeks of pregnancy may correspond with miscarriage.

Here, progesterone plays a 'secretory’ role in the reproductive organs. It stimulates changes in the uterus, which contain progesterone-sensitive tissue, and supports pregnancy by increasing blood vessel development in the endometrium.

Progesterone, Fertility, and Reproduction

During a woman's cycle, progesterone levels rise rapidly at ovulation to provide a fertile environment for the fertilized egg. Here, progesterone is also responsible for the increase in body temperature at ovulation that lasts through most of the luteal phase. Beginning with ovulation, the corpus luteum produces progesterone for several days (and the concomitant temperature increase is frequently measured and recorded in BBT/fertility charting).

If fertilization and implantation take place, the placenta takes over the role of producing progesterone to further maintain a supportive environment for embryonic and fetal development. If fertilization does not occur, progesterone levels fall dramatically (usually after 10-12 days) triggering the shedding of the secretory endometrium (menses).

Because progesterone is essential in preventing the shedding of the secretory endometrium, a significant drop in progesterone levels during the first 10 - 12 weeks of pregnancy may result in a miscarriage.

Low Progesterone and Natural Progesterone Creams

Low progesterone can be detected by a blood test after ovulation or by charting fertility. Another sign of low progesterone is a shortened luteal phase that lasts less than 10 days.

There are several things you can do to boost the progesterone level. One is to go to the doctor and get a prescription for progesterone or a fertility drug like Clomid. However, natural progesterone creams are also available that may help in preparing the uterine wall for implantation of the fertilized egg and sustain the endometrium. Women with a history of miscarriage can use natural progesterone cream as soon as they know they have ovulated, to supplement their own progesterone. However, natural progesterone creams should not be used until ovulation takes place. Consult your physician for more information on the benefits of progesterone and uses/applications.

Other Applications of Progesterone

Progesterone has many other functions, among them protecting against fibrocysts, helping the body use fat for energy, and helping normalize blood clotting and blood sugar levels. Today, many health professionals claim that the symptoms associated with PMS and menopause are due not so much to estrogen, but to a deficiency of progesterone and an overabundance of estrogen.

The inner wall of the uterus is lined by endometrial tissues. The endometrial tissues thicken during the first part of your menstrual cycle.Once ovulation occurs progesterone acts to stop this thickening, and changes the endometrial lining so that it is ready to accept a pregnancy should it occur. If pregnancy doesn't occur, hormone production ceases and the endometrium breaks up and is shed as menstrual blood

so progestorene is useful in preventing abortion. the doctor may put you in progestorone supplements like Prometrium to help supplement my progesterone levels.

Progesterone is a common hormone for the body to not make enough of during pregnancy. To keep a pregnancy successful they would like the levels to be above 10 at around 7 weeks. Progesterone vaginal suppositories are the recommended way to go because the progesterone is targeting the area you need it (cervix/uterus/placenta). Most doctors will have you stop progesterone supplements around 12-14 weeks of pregnancy, once the placenta takes over producing the hormone. At the point you go off progesterone is the point you find out if the pregnancy can support itself.

Before I go into my analysis. I would suggest you not to worry so early. First go for a scan that has been suggested by doctor and then wait for the result. A low progesterone is not a problem. The levels can be raised by giving you the correct medication. This will sort the problem out.

Progesterone is a C-21 steroid hormone involved in the female menstrual cycle, pregnancy (supports gestation) and embryogenesis of humans and other species. Progesterone belongs to a class of hormones called progestogens, and is the major naturally occurring human progestogen.

In women, progesterone levels are relatively low during the preovulatory phase of the menstrual cycle, rise after ovulation, and are elevated during the luteal phase. In women progesterone levels tend to be < 2 ng/ml prior to ovulation, and > 5 ng/ml after ovulation. If pregnancy occurs, progesterone levels are maintained at luteal levels initially. With the onset of the luteal-placental shift in progesterone support of the pregnancy levels start to rise further and may reach 100-200 ng/ml at term. Whether a decrease in progesterone levels is critical for the initiation of labor has been argued and may be species-specific. After delivery of the placenta and during lactation, progesterone levels are very low.

Please dont worry, wait till you get the scans to decide anything.

please do not be upset. For many couples it takes several years to get pregnant and so far you have no major problems. If low progestrone turns out to be the only problem you have, it is easily treated with hormonal therapy.

The xray will see whether your internal organs are fine - for example whether yur fallopian tubes are in good condition for pregnancy. If any problem is discovered, the doctor will advise you about suitable treatment.

From what you wrote so far, no, you are not infertile, but of course it is impossible to say without knowing all the results. It is also impossible to say how long your treatment will take without knowing yet what doctors will be treating. Look, do not be afraid to ask the doctor any questions you have - it is their job to help.

Please stop worrying and relax (stress can be preventing pregnancy as well). It will all work out.

God help you.

Good luck!
