Hi ohara...First of all let me say that I am sorry for your loss. I hope you are doing well, it was really tough for me. Progesterone levels do effect things for some people. After my first miscarriage, I had a blood draw and it showed my progesterone levels low. Progesterone is the hormone that bulks up that uterine lining making a nice cozy place for the embryo. When I got pregnant again, I started having blood draws every few days. I started to see the progesterone levels drop slowly so we started on prometrium immediately. Who knows if it would have ended in miscarriage again if I did nothing. But I took the med and now I have a beautiful 13 month old baby boy. Getting all those blood draws was certainly worth it to me. The medication doesnt do any harm so it was always worth it for me. As for switching docs...listen to your heart. Discuss what you have seen from others and if you dont feel like you are being heard, then I would think it is time to find someone else. Good luck.
