Your thoughts (progesterone support)

I have a patient come from Australia who is taking pessaries of progesterone. Here we are giving 400 mg 3 x per day. I have known Aussie ladies before to miscarry so often due to not having enough progesterone support. Despite advice here this lady is only going to take 200 mg twice a day. I seriously know it just isn't enough for DE IVF. What are your thoughts? I often wonder if this is the reason so many people in Australia have miscarriage after miscarriage - it actually really annoys me. Previous patients coming here have had upto 8 miscarriages and I'm absolutely sure its because of lack of progesterone support. Anyway, I can't convince this woman to take more but I do know that it will not end well - Very sad!!!!
