Progesterone is a relatively important hormone in the female body. It has an extremely important impact on female fertility. If a woman's progesterone level is low, it will affect her conception and even cause infertility. In addition, if the progesterone level is low in the early stages of pregnancy, it may even lead to miscarriage. Therefore, women with low progesterone levels must pay more attention, receive timely treatment and supplement. 1. Causes of low progesterone 1. When the corpus luteum is incomplete and the corpus luteum of the ovary is not fully developed, the progesterone content decreases accordingly. 2. Severe disorders of the adrenal glands and thyroid glands can also affect ovarian function, causing ovulation disorders and a corresponding decrease in progesterone levels. 3. The body develops insulin resistance. 2. What to do if progesterone is low 1. Hospital treatment The reason why many female friends have low progesterone levels is due to disease factors, among which endocrine dysfunction is the most common one. Therefore, it is necessary to go to a regular hospital for relevant examinations in time, identify the pathogenic factors, and treat the symptoms in order to effectively achieve the goal of curing the disease. 2. Food adjustment Women can also regulate their progesterone levels through diet, and consume foods rich in soy isoflavones and natural vitamin E. These ingredients in food can help women produce more progesterone. Eating some fruits rich in pectin and dietary fiber can also help us supplement progesterone, such as kiwi, strawberry or grapefruit, which can help women supplement vitamin C and vitamin E in the body, and can make progesterone reach normal levels. 3. Consequences of low progesterone If women lack progesterone, it is very harmful to their bodies and can easily lead to miscarriage and premature birth. High concentrations of progesterone can also have a calming effect on the enlarged female uterus, thus maintaining a woman's early pregnancy. Progesterone can cause the female uterine muscle fibers to relax and reduce excitability. At the same time, it also reduces the sensitivity of the pregnant uterus to oxytocin, reduces uterine contractions, and is beneficial to the normal development and growth of the fertilized egg in the uterus. Insufficient progesterone levels during pregnancy may eventually lead to miscarriage in women, so you should pay more attention to it. |
