Prometrium to stop bleeding

Common Questions and Answers about Prometrium to stop bleeding

prometrium

611020 tn?1290571629 I'm on prometrium and my doctor said that if I was going to miscarry it would not stop it from happening that it would just happen on it's own. So, from what my doctor said yes you will still miscarry even if you are taking the prometrium it doesn't stop it from happening. It will not prevent spotting bleeding or cramping. I have been spotting since the 22nd and been on prometrium since the 28th. So you will still bleed on prometrium. Is this sound clear?
490183 tn?1361213953 Ok, so I'm CD32 today, pretty sure I'm not prego, and 1 day past AF's arrival. I didn't stop my Prometrium, which I started taking 3DPO, just in case I AM prego. I figured I'd stop as soon as AF showed. Since this is my first round of Prometrium, I need to know if it will STOP AF from coming. Or, will it add a couple days to AF's arrival??
Avatar f tn I'm taking it twice a day, once in the morning and once at night. 200mg. I take it with food so it won't make nauseated. My doctor put me on it to stop my bleeding and since I've been on it I've had none. I only have to take it for 2 more weeks I think. 5 weeks total. My doctor said it was completely safe. And it stopped my problem. So I'm not worried.
Avatar f tn My family doc gave me a prescription for Prometrium (200 mgs) because I was terrified of taking the Provera again due to side effects and heavy bleeding. Any information on how one feels while taking Prometrium (vs Provera) and whether it works to bring on a flow but, not a flood? I'm confused and cannot get my OBGYN by phone or even and appointment to talk to her. Any help would be much appreciated.
Avatar f tn I did the prometrium to bring a period on and started bleeding before I was done. I finished up the pills and had a normal cycle. Call the gyno and let him now it is poradic. Should be ok - but just in case, call and just let them know.
Avatar f tn I stopped the Prometrium for 10 days and MY BLEEDING STOPPED ENTIRELY so it has to be the Prometrium. I know I need progesterone as still have my uterus but am I the only one that is seeing this happen? I was told by Sott Pelle providers that a women minimally needs progesterone 14 days every third month. Can someone tell me their experience with this?
Avatar f tn I did not get periods for 2 months but I was getting some kind of bleeding every now and then. My gynac suggested me to take prometrium for 10 days after seeing a follicle. Its been 7 days now that i have stopped prometrium but still no periods. I have take HPT too in the past week and both the tests are negative. I am confused if I am pregnant or not Could some one suggest me here any solution. Also, when should we take the HPT once we stop prometrium.
Avatar n tn On Tuesday I was told my Saturday Progesterone levels were 17-very good. OB said to keep taking Prometrium and to take it twice daily due to bleeding. He said U/S would not show anything yet. Tuesday afternoon my bleeding stopped and did not start again until Wednesday morning. It is now Wednesday evening and my bleeding has stopped again. I was wondering if taking the Prometrium at night and in the morning could be triggering bleeding? This is not like any miscarriage I have ever had.
623920 tn?1276478891 I am taking prometrium to help support the pregnancy (if i am). I usually take provera to start my cycle because i am irregular. I believe you can take prometrium to do the same. I am wondering if i am not pregnant if my af will start while i am on the prometrium. I am not sure if the test they are doing is quantitative. Maybe they are just interpreting the numbers and telling if i am pregnant or not.
Avatar f tn They called earlier and my HCG level had went up quite a bit to 1100 but my progesterone dropped slightly to 17. They are having me take Prometrium 200mg twice a day to try and bring the levels up. With taking the Prometrium to raise the progesterone will I likely have a healthy pregnancy or a miscarriage?
1302038 tn?1439575232 UPDATE *******I HAVE TO GO TO DOC FRI THEY MAY GIVE ME A MED TO STOP MY BLEEDING THEY WANTED ME TO GO TODAY BUT I CANT DO TO WORK WISH ME LUCK :)
688845 tn?1325182236 I took prometrium until 12 weeks and was so nervous to stop taking it, but I did. DD turned out healthy and perfect! My hcg was 109 or something like that. I think because you're so early in your pregnancy that that's why your numbers are low, just like your dr said. Don't be alarmed just yet! Good luck! I'll be praying that your numbers continue to rise!
Avatar f tn I just need to know if anyone else experienced the same while taking Prometrium but still was able to have a healthy baby.
Avatar n tn t stop, they will often prescribe Progesterone to stop the bleeding. It does stop the bleeding for the most part. This is usually standard treatment to stop lengthy bleeding as a "bandaid" solution. The root cause of your lengthy bleeding should be gotten to at some point or another as well. There are many causes for prolonged and heavy bleeding such as fibroids, polyps, a thickened endometrium caused by too much or too little of either estrogen or progesterone.
490183 tn?1361213953 I would say, give it till a couple days past AF, and test again. I've read so many crazy stories of women that got false negatives after false negative AND spotting, just to find out they were prego a couple wks later. Our bodies are STRANGE. Don't give up hope yet! :) BABYDUST BABYDUST BABYDUST BABYDUST BABYDUST Just got off the phonne with the nurse at DR's office.
Avatar m tn While taking Prometrium for luteal phase defect, I got several faint positives on home pregnancy tests. But then I began bleeding (light but steady full flow). So I stopped taking the prometrium. I've been bleeding for a few days now--still more than spotting though less than before. But I decided to take another home pregnancy test anyways because something felt funny. Two different brands of test were positive, darker than before but still quite faint. What do I do now?
Avatar n tn Hi, I am having my progestrone levels very low so doctor prescribe me to take prometrium 100mg twice daily, now my question is, I got BFP when I did HTP and now I am 5 weeks 2 days. So now can I contiune to take prometrium after knowing that I am pregnant ? then are some positive as well as negative responses regarding this, my doctor said that it will be of no harm contiuning in the first trimester. is prometrium natural progestorone supplement ?
318181 tn?1336443496 Since I was a bit nervous about it, I decided Friday night to stop the crinone and just take one prometrium pill (as opposed to two) for a few days before stopping alltogether. So I've been doing that for a couple of days now. BUT, I noticed yesterday and today that I'm now having some minor cramping. Not very often. It was twice yesterday for maybe a minute or so and then once this morning before getting out of bed.
Avatar n tn When my HCG level dropped, I was told to stop the prometrium due to the impending miscarriage. I go for an ultrasound on the 8th, but, at this point, I am in the process of having a miscarriage. I passed some tissue earlier this afternoon and have had the spotting turn to bleeding, which has been pretty consistent. I am pretty much just numb at this point....
Avatar f tn By the way, the bleeding did stop and hubby put me on bedrest. No picking up our other children or cleaning or ANYTHING! That helped a ton. Not to mention the progesterone pills make me feel really weird and dizzy.
Avatar n tn My Dr has prescribed Prometrium 200mgs to be taken for the 1st 5 days of my next period. Everything I have read about this is that it is usually prescribed for 10 days before your period, so I am confused. Also, he mentioned that Prometrium will help protect me from endometrial cancer and possibly breast cancer. I read that it may increase the risk of breast cancer so I am totally confused. Can someone help and offer advice? I am going for a 2nd opinion in December with another Ob/Gyn.
Avatar f tn I am sorry to hear that. Helen72 is right... It's probably AF is coming once you stop taking progesterone. It's happen to me when I continued take Prometrium and it's strenght my cycle longer. sometimes by 18DPO I haven't get period. The minute i stopped next day I saw spotted and heavy flow following next day. Is your body temp drop? If it's still remain above 98+, you still have little chance to be pregnant. good luck to you.
Avatar n tn I know that progesterone can sensibilise or irritate the uterin cavity or cervix, but bleeding when your pregnant, especially in early stage is always frightening. It seems to stop but I go do a next blood work to morrow to make sure that the beta are getting higher. If it went down that will mean a miscarriage... Any experience you could share that could comfort me? I would really appreciate. Thank you.
Avatar f tn I am supposed to stop my prometrium when I'm 10w which is this thursday, but I have read that some people have miscarried because ur body is not making enough progesterone of its own. I been trying to get preggo for almost 4 yrs and to miscarried now would be devestating. I have also heard that if ur preggo with twins which I am its good to keep taking the prometrium to minimize the chances of premature labor.
Avatar f tn I'ld like to know is anyone on prometrium suppository, because i'm on it & my Dr. said to stop by 12th week. Has anyone of you heard about it- any sucess stories. Dr. says after 12 weeks placenta would take care of it. I'm really scared.... This is my 3rd preg, after 2m/c- so scared. Any advice is appreciated.
Avatar f tn You are supposed to stop taking them by week 10-12. So it is safe to discontinue. The placenta has taken over the production of progesterone. I stopped taking progesterone in week 10-11. I've got my newborn baby girl on my lap right this very moment. Good luck and congrats!
