Low progesterone may be related to physiological and pathological factors, and can be relieved by temporary observation, medication and surgical treatment.
1. Physiological: some women may have physiological low progesterone in early pregnancy, mainly because progesterone is in a relatively unstable stage during the transition between the corpus luteum and the placenta, so there may be a physiological decline in progesterone at this time, but it will rise again afterward. In this case, there is no need for special treatment, temporary observation can be.
2. Pathological: low progesterone caused by luteal insufficiency can be treated by injection or oral progesterone medication. For low progesterone caused by poor embryonic development, if abortion cannot be avoided, it can be treated by purging. Low progesterone due to ectopic pregnancy can be treated with laparoscopic or open surgery.
When a woman has a low progesterone level, she should be treated according to the cause.
