When the progesterone level is 1.5 in a pregnant woman will it mean miscarriage?
Progesterone can be low for two different reasons. It can be predicting a failing pregnancy, or it can just be that your body is having a hard time producing it and you need a hormone supplement. 1.5 is a very low progesterone level. Most doctors like you to be no lower than 10. If you are bleeding or have any other miscarriage symptoms along with it, I am sorry to say, you may be miscarrying. Hopefully you are not, and the doctors can get you on a prescription ASAP.
The best of luck to you! In the future, you can always have the doctor check your progesterone levels at a non-pregnancy time to rule out if you have a progesterone imbalance, or if your levels were just low because of a failing pregnancy.
