Women in early pregnancy need to pay attention to whether their progesterone secretion is normal, as low progesterone secretion during this stage can have adverse effects on the healthy development of early embryos and may lead to threatened miscarriage. So is progesterone 18 normal for women in early pregnancy at 7 weeks of gestation?
1. Most women should have a progesterone level greater than 25ng/ml when tested during early pregnancy. If the progesterone level during prenatal check ups in early pregnancy is 18, it should be considered that there is insufficient progesterone secretion in the body, which may be detrimental to the health of the pregnancy.
2. In the early stages of pregnancy, the embryo is stabilized after initial implantation, and during the period of cell differentiation and development, if the progesterone in the body is low, it is often unable to counteract uterine smooth muscle contraction, which is not conducive to early embryo differentiation and stabilization, and there is also a risk of threatened miscarriage in early pregnancy. Therefore, based on the results of this examination, oral or intramuscular injection of relevant hormone drugs should be given according to the doctor's guidance for fetal protection treatment.
3. During the treatment period, early pregnant women should pay attention to bed rest, avoid excessive walking, and avoid doing too much household chores. It is best to rest in absolute bed and avoid getting out of bed and walking unless necessary. It is recommended to promote early embryo development and further stabilize it after treatment to prevent miscarriage caused by low progesterone secretion in the body, which is also more conducive to successful fetal preservation.
