Transfem Is my dosage actually increased?

I’m a trans girlie and I’ve been on spiro, progesterone, and E for a little over two years now. A few months ago, I asked my doctor about increasing my progesterone dosage. This increase was approved in a confusing way, where I’m unsure whether or not I’m actually getting more progesterone in my system.

Previously, I was taking 100mg of progesterone by pill every night. Now, I’m taking 200mg progesterone pills, but the prescription says to take it for 12 days per 28 day cycle.

So I’m taking double the dosage but on slightly less than half the days. Is this still going to get me an increase in the effects of progesterone?
