Progesterone is a very important factor during pregnancy. Once progesterone is low, it needs to be taken seriously and the cause of low progesterone should be actively identified for timely regulation and treatment to avoid affecting normal pregnancy. If progesterone is low, it may also cause signs of miscarriage, so women cannot ignore it. So, why does progesterone become lower and lower after pregnancy?
After pregnancy, progesterone levels gradually decrease, which may be caused by luteal insufficiency. This can lead to insufficient secretion of progesterone. In normal pregnant women, progesterone levels generally continue to increase, which is beneficial for maintaining pregnancy. If progesterone is insufficient, the embryo may be rejected by the mother as a foreign body, and miscarriage may occur.
When women experience low progesterone levels, they should seek medical attention promptly and receive targeted and effective treatment under the guidance of a doctor. Generally speaking, doctors will supplement progesterone by injecting it or taking it orally.
However, not everyone is suitable for progesterone medication, and some women may experience adverse reactions, so it is necessary to use it under the guidance of a doctor. If women have signs of miscarriage due to adverse genetic factors, environmental factors, maternal diseases, etc., then progesterone should not be used for fetal protection treatment. In this case, progesterone supplementation is not very effective.
