If the secretion of progesterone in the body of pregnant women is low, it will affect the healthy development of the fetus, especially if the progesterone in the body is severely low, which can easily lead to early pregnancy miscarriage. So after examination, it was found that progesterone secretion was insufficient, and effective treatment should be given. So, what are the reasons for the decrease in progesterone in pregnant women?
1. The reason for low progesterone secretion in women during early pregnancy should first consider the possibility of insufficient luteal function in the ovaries, which may result in insufficient progesterone secretion to support pregnancy. So it is necessary to check for the presence of ovarian luteal insufficiency, and based on the examination results, take medication that can increase progesterone under the guidance of a doctor for fetal protection treatment.
2. Some women also experience a decrease in progesterone secretion during early pregnancy, which may be related to some systemic diseases, such as thyroid dysfunction. Thyroid dysfunction is also a common cause of low progesterone secretion during pregnancy, so thyroid function tests are also necessary. If there are thyroid disease problems, targeted treatment should also be given to hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism to ensure a healthy pregnancy.
3. In addition, women who have undergone surgical procedures in the uterine cavity before pregnancy, such as abortion or removal of uterine fibroids, can also cause certain damage to the endometrium. If the recovery is poor in the later stage, it can also lead to a decrease in progesterone after pregnancy. Therefore, pregnant women with such situations must complete relevant examinations to achieve targeted treatment.
