Hi,

Your temperature of 37.5 degree Celsius is normal and you dont need any treatment for the same.

This temperature will not have any effect on your frozen embryo transfer results.

Brief Answer:
Take a paracetamol

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Fever is when temperature is above 38.5 degrees. If you feel feverish take a paracetamol tablet available over the counter.

This won't harm pregnancy chances.

Hi,

Congratulations. Your beta hCG levels are good for 5 weeks. It is also good to know your temperature is normal.

You can start folic acid supplements now itself. Iron can be started after 12 weeks.

Brief Answer:
Progesterone variation is normal

Detailed Answer:
HI,

It is normal to have decreased progesterone value at this period of gstation and no need to worry about it. There is going to be variation.

It is good to see increasing beta hCG values.

By next week you should get an ultrasound scan done to check for heart beat.

Let me know if you need anymore help.
