Hormone level questions

I am newly pregnant (4th time, 3mc's). My HCG levels look fine (89, then 710) but my doc is not happy with the progesterone. The levels were
12.4 at 7 DPO
24.2 at 14 DPO
27.7 at 18 DPO

So, I had one shot in the butt, am using prog. suppositories 2xday and now they added a prometrium pill once at night. Anyone else doing this? Are these levels that bad or are they just being careful?

Also, my estrodial level was 233 on both the day 14 and 18 tests. Is this normal? I can't find any info. about that number and what it should be doing. If anyone out there has info good or bad please share.
Thanks,
Julie

Julie -

I think your progesterone levels look prety good.  My doc says he likes them to stay above 20 and yours are!  Maybe they were worried about the first level?  I am on the progesterone injections one every three days and the suppositories 3x a day.  I wish you the best.
