HUGS, so sorry to hear that you are going through all of this. Praying that your body heals and you get your Rainbow Baby soon!!!

Oh no I'm sorry - I'm still sending though because sometimes the numbers can be weird but things still work out.

I had twins. Probably only one is left.
Could it cause this low progesterone?

[atomic sagebrush]

Have they tested your progesterone again?? Do we know if it's still low or if it is now rising?

The thing with progesterone is that since you don't know what day you Oed and conceived, you don't even know what # your progesterone was supposed to be that day. So it may be just a measurement error from testing on a different day than you thought you were on, coupled with the strange readings from losing the twin pregnancy (I'm so sorry!!)

This number is from Thursday morning and in the evening I started bleeding (and I think I MCed one of twins). On Friday I had also blood test but the results will tomorrow.
It so hard because I've never thought that i could have twins and when I saw (on Tuesday ) two gestational sacs I was so happy!
I hope everything will be ok! I try not to worry.
Thank you sooo much for your answers and support

I've miscarried so I have to wait for bleeding.
I hope I don't need D&C.

I'm so sorry Imama. Hugest (((((hugs))))). Please let me know if I can help in any way.

Thank you Atomic!
Everything is going well, I don't need D&C.

I have some questions because of my miscarriages. I had two losses within one month. I'm confused if I made something wrong with my sway. I had two perfect pregnancies and two healthy boys so I am in shock!

Well, I'm doing LE diet since January.
40g Protein, 50g fat, 1300-1500kcal, no snacking, no breakfast, some cinnamon
DW: LR, OLE
DD: Folic Acid, Fibre,
previously Vitex (3 months), BF(till May)

Should I change/add sth after those m/c?
My gynecologist recommend me baby aspirin 100mg, and Progesterone after Ovulation, iron (because of low level).
I want try to get Clomid and use it 3-7CD, should I?
Maybe some coq10? Or Folate instead of Folic acid?
I don't know if I should make one or two months break or try TTC after first AF or catch the first egg?
Could you please give me some advice ❤️

It is possible that a) the second pregnancy was just too hot on the heels of the first one - that is a theory I don't always subscribe to/believe in but it is possible and much more likely b) twin pregnancies are just fragile. They are more likely to miscarry and it may have been that the first loss was just bad luck (most of us have had at least 1-2 losses over the course of time) and then the second was a risky proposition due to it being twins. I find this the most likely.

Can you please tell me your weight? BEcause unless you have more than 30 lbs to spare, I want you to increase your cal intake to 1500-1800. You also should not be doing cinnamon at all unless you have a significant amount of weight to lose. I seriously use cinnamon in like 3-5% of sways and it is not right for everyone.

Hubs ditch LR at this point anyway

switching to folate does not hurt and may help.

NO more vitex.

I really, really advise against the aspirin unless the doc has tested you and found you have a genetic disorder that affects blood clotting. The idea that women should be given aspirin after a couple losses is falling into disfavor since several studies have found that it doesn't help and in fact may even cause some miscarriages. Additionally you should not do the aspirin on top of the cinnamon anyway as both are blood thinners.

Depending on your weight I may have you drop fiber as well

Progesterone after O has been studied and found not to help anyone get or stay pregnant. It is up to you if you wish to use it but it is very, very unlikely that progesterone being low caused the pregnancies to end. What actually happens is that the pregnancy is not developing normally and your body detects that, and then stops making progesterone to end the pregnancy - it is nature's way of ending a pregnancy that is not developing right. Doctors still prescribe it some of them because it is just what they were taught to do in med school but it's no longer supported by science.

I don't want you on coq10 unless you stop the cinnamon. Both will lower your blood sugar level too far.

Yes yes by all means get Clomid if you can. You MUST NOT take vitex when using Clomid.

RE when to try - I'd not try to catch the first egg this time. We may need things to work themselves out for a month first. So I'd split the difference, since you didn't need the D and C thankfully, just wait till you have a period and then try for the second egg, not the first.

Well, my BMI is 21,7 and weight 130lbs. I've lost about 13lbs during the first three months but right now I cannot lose more weight. Sometimes I'm over those 1500 kcal. During my first mc I gained 2lbs.
I don't take Vitex anymore.
DH takes LR because of his stomach problems.
Re aspirin: my doc didn't test me and told that aspirin may increase chances of a healthy pregnancy (up to 60%) so I'm little confused because I also read many oppositions.
I will try my best get clomid! So, we will wait for a period and then try for the second egg.
I don't know if I should add something or just do what I previously did: LE diet, no snacking, no breakfast, coffee, some alcohol. And only switching to Folate.
Coq10 I've also read that may sway blue so maybe it is too risky.
Maybe inofolic?
Could lower blood sugar level be dangerous?
