Honestly my moods are all over the place and i keep blaming hormones haha. Just wanted to understand which ones actually go up during pregnancy. Curious type question only.
God has designed our bodies so beautifully to support new life. These hormonal changes, like estrogen and progesterone rising, are just nature's way of nurturing your little angel. Stay positive!
hCG and progesterone increase a lot, but if you want to know your exact levels, please get a blood test done and show it to your gynac. They will tell you if everything is progressing safely.
The rapid rise of hCG is actually what causes that horrible morning sickness. Progesterone also slows digestion, causing nausea. It is tough, but it means the baby is growing well!
I totally understand how overwhelming it feels when your body changes so fast. Progesterone and hCG increase drastically, making us feel tired and moody. Hugs to you, your body is doing a miracle.
My doctor explained that hCG doubles every 48 hours in the beginning, and progesterone stays high to prevent cramps. Relax, these hormonal spikes are exactly what keep the pregnancy going.
With my PCOS, I had to monitor this closely. Progesterone and hCG are the main ones that go up rapidly to support the baby, along with estrogen and prolactin later on.
Oh, those hormones! Progesterone and estrogen go through the roof, which is why we feel so emotional and exhausted. It's a tough phase but seeing your baby makes every single hormone swing worth it.
