During pregnancy, it is important to pay attention to the condition of progesterone, as abnormal progesterone levels can be detrimental to fetal development and may lead to threatened miscarriage. Generally, in the early stages of pregnancy, the progesterone in the pregnant woman's body doubles the next day. So, what should be done if the progesterone level is low and doubles during early pregnancy?
Pregnant women have low levels of progesterone in their bodies, but if doubling is normal, timely supplementation of progesterone is necessary. Because when progesterone is relatively low, it is likely to cause miscarriage, so early measures need to be taken. Pregnant women can take progesterone orally or inject it, which can quickly restore progesterone to normal levels.
After taking progesterone, pregnant women should undergo hormone testing and ultrasound examination to assess their pregnancy status. If symptoms such as vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain occur, it is necessary to seek medical attention immediately. In addition, pregnant women can confirm whether they are pregnant inside the uterus through B-ultrasound examination. Usually, when ectopic pregnancy occurs, it is easy to cause low progesterone.
If it is confirmed as ectopic pregnancy after B-ultrasound examination, there is no need to take progesterone, and treatment should be carried out immediately. Because ectopic pregnancy is very dangerous, if the treatment time is delayed, it can easily cause massive bleeding, and pregnant women can also be at risk of life-threatening situations. For ectopic pregnancy, doctors mostly use tubal fenestration surgery to treat it.
