Pregnancy Info HOME

Hey everyone! I was on clomid because I found out I don't always release the egg. I had 5 mature eggs and was given a hcg shot on day 15 of my cycle. Then I was given an IUI the following day. I took a blood test at the doctors office and my hcg was low, but it was 16 days since the shot. They felt it was a pregnancy trying. They gave me 100 mg of prometrium (progesterone) twice daily and I have to come back on Monday (3 days later). Can someone tell me what that is about? Did the clomid cause me to have low progesterone? Is it to keep me from loosing the baby or to help the hCG levels rise? I'm new to all this!
