What to do if progesterone is low during pregnancy

  Insufficient secretion of progesterone in the body of pregnant women can easily cause symptoms of threatened miscarriage such as lower abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding. Therefore, early pregnant women who experience such symptoms and go to the hospital for prenatal check ups often find that it is related to low progesterone secretion. So, what should be done if diagnosed with low progesterone during pregnancy?

  

What to do if progesterone is low during pregnancy1

  1. Drug therapy. Low progesterone levels in women during pregnancy are mostly due to luteal insufficiency, which leads to low progesterone levels during pregnancy. If diagnosed as intrauterine pregnancy and experiencing low progesterone levels in early pregnancy, under the guidance of a doctor, high progesterone drugs can be injected into the muscle to prevent miscarriage. During the period of fetal protection treatment, medication should be taken according to medical advice, and medication should not be interrupted without authorization. Standardized treatment should be achieved.

  2. Dietary regulation. During the treatment of low progesterone levels during pregnancy, dietary adjustments can also be combined. Some foods consumed in daily life are rich in natural soy isoflavones and vitamin E nutrients, such as soybeans, black beans, kelp, fish, lamb, black chicken, and some soy products. These foods can be reasonably arranged in the daily diet and are beneficial for assisting in the regulation of low progesterone.

  3. Pay attention to prenatal check ups. Pregnant women with low progesterone levels should pay attention to prenatal checkups and follow-up after undergoing fetal protection treatment. They should follow the doctor's prescribed time and undergo necessary targeted prenatal checkups during the mid-term of treatment and after the course of treatment to clarify the effectiveness of fetal protection treatment.
