I have a dropping progesterone and no sign of a fetal pole in 6.5 wks pregnancy. Has anyone experienced this?

Question

I am 6.5 weeks pregnant and found out today that I my progesterone dropped from 20.3 to 15.8. They also are not able to find a fetal pole. On my ultrasound on Fri. there was no sign of anything, but today (Mon.) we were able to see the yolk. Has anyone experience any of this. Thank you!

Answer 1

Progesterone is secreeded in pulses and it will fluctuate. Bot your numbers sound OK for early pregnancy. But typically at 6.5 weeks they can find a heartbeat. Maybe you are not as far as you think (later ovulation)?
