A member asked:

Does low progesyerone level in early pregnancy cause bad low back pain?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Usually not: Low back pain in pregnancy is usually related to the extra weight being supported by the lower back muscles. Think of your spine as the middle of a see saw. The more weight in front has to be balanced by more effort by the back muscles. Good luck sleep on a good mattress and on your side with a pillow between your legs.
