From experience... progesterone shots are not synthetic progesterone. Some women don't produce enough progesterone in early pregnancy to help sustain a pregnancy in the early weeks. You need progesterone until the placenta starts to take over, generally around week 10. Progesterone injections, will not cause miscarriage. Further is that at 3 1/2 months pregnant, progesterone levels are not AS important as they are in the beginning as the placenta is now taken over and is doing the job. I've never heard of a doctor prescribing progesterone (let alone progesterone shots) once you are in the 2nd trimester. Most women who are on Progesterone shots or Progesterone suppositories are off and done with them bewteen 8-12 weeks.
