    Progesterone. Possible low hormone?

    Has your doc worked you up for clotting disorders? That's what they did with me after I had my son early. Could be any number of things, but my OB also told me the other day that progesterone shots are now FDA approved to help prevent preterm labor. They don't start until 16 weeks though...maybe you need bed rest for your first trimester? Good luck. :)

    No they didn't give me any shot and won't test the fetus until I have a third miscarriage.what shot would they give me

    The clotting disorder test is run on you. They literally took 14 vials of blood from me to see if I had one. And the shot is progesterone.

    If you have one, it will show up whenever you're tested for it. If your OB won't test for it, go to your primary care doc and explain what has been going on and that you're concerned you may have a clotting issue. Ask him to order labs. Can't hurt. You have to advocate for yourself because no one else knows your body better than you.
