Should I worry about my hormone levels?

Hi all, I'm not presently trying to get pregnant, but I did have my hormone levels tested a few weeks ago.

My progesterone is low (about 3) and my testosterone is high at 94 (it's actually normal, with anything over 100 being high)

My doctor prescribed Prometrium to raise my progesterone levels. But what I'm am worried about is the long term issues.

I would like to have more children and I'm wondering if my progesterone levels could be a sign of infertility, or if my levels being low could affect my chances of getting pregnant within the next few years.

I am 34 years old and dating a wonderful man who wants to have children some day. I would hate to move on further with the relationship and then not be able to have the children that he so desperately wants.

I'm so worried about it, since I care about him very much and I want to be with him, yet if I can't have kids anymore (I have an 8 year old now) I would never want to take that away from him.

Help me!

Answer:
It shouldn't hurt taking Prometrium. Many women take it so that they don't have miscarriages if their progesterone is low.
