[quote=Anonymous]In a non-IVF pregnancy, the corpus luteum hangs after ovulation and produces progesterone until the placenta is developed enough to take over. Since the corpus luteum is not present in an IVF pregnancy (since ovulation did not happen naturally), supplementation until that point is necessary. In a non-IVF pregnancy, some doctors think progesterone can help sustain an at-risk pregnancy by relaxing the uterus. In your case, they are probably trying to create an environment that is most conducive to letting the hematoma heal. I took it for subchorionic hematoma with one of my pregnancies and everything turned out fine. He is a now a beautiful, perfectly healthy preschooler. [/quote]
