Reference table of normal progesterone values ​​at five weeks

Progesterone is a very important hormone that is secreted by the ovaries. Especially for pregnant women, progesterone must be within the normal range, so that it will be beneficial to the development of the fetus. Especially during ovulation, progesterone secretion will be unstable, and it is necessary to refer to the normal values ​​for adjustment. The progesterone value is closely related to the human villi. In the early stages of pregnancy, the progesterone level is between 10,000 and 50,000, which is normal. The following is a detailed explanation of the specific situation.

Progesterone generally refers to progesterone. Progesterone, also known as progesterone hormone and luteinizing hormone, is the main biologically active progestin secreted by the ovaries. Before ovulation, the amount of progesterone produced per day is 2~3 mg, mainly from the ovaries. Progesterone can protect the female endometrium. During pregnancy, progesterone can provide support and protection for the early growth and development of the fetus, and can have a certain calming effect on the uterus. In addition, progesterone and estrogen are closely related, and both are very important female hormones. The main function of estrogen is to promote the development and maturation of female secondary sexual characteristics, while progesterone further promotes the development and maturation of secondary sexual characteristics on the basis of the effect of estrogen. There is a synergistic effect between the two. Generally speaking, the normal range of progesterone at five weeks of pregnancy is 10,000-50,000.

β-HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) is a glycoprotein secreted by trophoblast cells of the placenta. Early diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy is mainly based on the detection of blood HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin). The blood β-HCG ratio can be used as a criterion for intrauterine pregnancy, ectopic pregnancy and pregnancy failure; patients with a β-HCG ratio <0.81 are more likely to have pregnancy failure, and patients with a ratio exceeding 1.68 are more likely to have intrauterine pregnancy. Generally speaking, the normal range for hCG levels is around 120 at five weeks of pregnancy.

If a pregnant woman finds that her progesterone and hCG indexes are significantly different from the reference values ​​of the normal range after five weeks of pregnancy, it is best to go to a hospital or medical institution for relevant examinations to better ensure the healthy development of the fetus. Of course, some elements consumed by pregnant women will also affect the changes in progesterone and hCG indexes.
