Common Questions and Answers about Prometrium and fibroids

prometrium

Avatar f tn He recommends going back on clomid (5 pills a day) and taking prometrium 200 mg 2 days after ovulation. My period is now between day 28 - 35, lasts only one day and is brownish-black. My question to you is that the ovulation strips which have always detected OV did not detect it this month or last month, did I stop OV'ing? Should I still take the prometrium? Is it time to look for another RE? What should I do next??? My clock is ticking and it's keeping me up at night. Thank you.
Avatar n tn I have been on bio-identical hormones for 3 years and they have worked wonders until recently. I wear a climera patch all month of .075 and I take Prometrium 12 days of the month. Is progesteron different from my prometrium? Should I stop all hormone therapy to see if the bleeding stops? I really don't know what to do from here.
Avatar n tn Fibroids and polyps are almost always benign (~99%) so hysterectomy would be overkill. And hysterectomy causes lifelong harm. I call it the surgery that keeps on giving... problem after problem... even if the ovaries are "preserved." Intercourse or pelvic exams can cause polyps to bleed. And if they aren't removed at the base, they can recur and cause heavy bleeding. What were the reasons for the D&C's - as part of the polyp removal or was your lining too thick?
1741246 tn?1311324281 I have endometriosis, and about 10 years ago I had the surgery where they cleaned up all the fibroids. My only symptoms of the endo are extreme lower back pain and cramps when I ovulate. Ten days ago I had a frozen embryo transfer, and am on my two week wait until my blood pregnancy test. (3 sleeps left) The last two nights asleep, I have been awakened by the same kind of ovulation pains & cramps.
Avatar n tn Fibroids can cause your cycles to be messed up, as well as adnormal bleeding and cramping. Your situation was what I was going through (bleeding one week on, one week off, one week on) and the OBGYN did an u/s, found small cysts on my ovaries and 2 fibroids on my uterus. He also believed I wasn't ovulating, which is why I was bleeding more than normal. He put me on Prometrium (progesterone supplment), I started bmy period AND ovulated on time.
Avatar f tn They did a transvaginal ultrasound and found big fibroids and could see the bleeding. I had a negative biopsy...thank God! I have never thad this problem before the Prometrium. Now I have to see the MD to discuss options. 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?
Avatar f tn I use a generic weekly estradiol patch (.1 mg) and Prometrium (200 mg) every night due to extreme menopausal symptoms. I change my patch on Monday evenings. I bleed for several days beginning every other Monday. Could this be caused by the patch losing effectiveness before the week is up? Would switching to Vivelle Dot, which has a twice a week schedule, help prevent the bleeding?
Avatar f tn I had 2 miscarriages in the past and with this one i went on prometrium and baby aspirin although nothing was ever diagnosed either. i did not experience any bleeding as a side effect of the prometrium though. have you had a scan yet?
Avatar f tn I had an IUI a few weeks ago and then started taking prometrium for ten days. I finished up last Wednesday so it has been 5 days. How long until I should expect my period after my last prometrium?
Avatar f tn I had an ultrasound that showed something funny in the lining of the uterus as well as some fibroids and a cyst. I was referred to a gyn for further investigation. She booked a hysterscopy. Meanwhile, while waiting for the test, I had a period in January and then nothing. In March I started having hot flashes - they came on suddenly and violently and I was probably having 50 or so a day. Doc ran thyroid levels and they were fine and then checked my female hormones. My fsh came back at 112.
182352 tn?1231183410 I took 400mg of prometrium a day and shots every other day for the first 12 weeks of my pregnancy.
453798 tn?1262633421 Does anyone take estrace and prometrium? I have googled information on those, but not finding what I want.
Avatar f tn I have never engaged in any sexual activities and do not understand how I got this disease. I took Prometrium in the past to regulate my menstruate cycle. I did some research on this drug and one of side effects for this drug is Herpes. Is it possible this medicine could cause a false positive or a positive blood results for Herpes Type 2?
1318306 tn?1276180824 m taking Prometrium vaginally. When should I use the prometrium before or after. Should he wear a condom. Will the prometrium do anything to him? anyone have any advice.
Avatar f tn I went through an ovulation induction cycle and was put on prometrium (progesterone) to support a healthy lining. I am now 20 days past ovulation, no period, and three negative home pregnancy tests (it is now day 33 of my cycle and I am typically a 28 day cycle, like clockwork). I talked to the doctor today who told me to stop the prometrium and I should expect my period in 2-3 days.
Avatar f tn Has any one taken Prometrium for abnormal bleeding? and if so did this medicine really works??.Thanks for any advice, it's very much appreciated.
Avatar f tn I have had a migraine every day starting at around noon and lasting until I go to bed. I took prometrium prior to pregnancy for period induction which i took for 10 days and i would get a "withdrawl" migraine for a day or two. Have any of you ladies experienced this? I'm really getting sick of taking tylenol every 4 hours but my head throbs so bad i can't see straight if i don't. I called my doc today and of course he's out of the office.
Avatar n tn They only took my progesterone levels once after I started the Prometrium to make sure it was theraputic and it was in the 20's don't remember exactly. But they haven't taken it again. But I've had 4 ultrasounds where we have seen baby's heartbeat and everything is well.

Avatar f tn Hi Elaine, So after 3 miscarriages I am pregnant (age 38) again with great hcg. And went for my 1st ultrasound at 6 weeks yesterday and they found the fetal pole and the hb was 116 bpm. So Im very happy... I would like to continue to have sex with my partner but do you think its safe? Could it cause a miscarriage? Also I\m on prometrium until 13 weeks so I;d hate to miscarry after sex and not know it.. Thank you.
1318306 tn?1276180824 I am sorry! I am surprised that prometrium made your AF worse it always made my cycles so much better! On to the next one! Here's for hoping for a BFP!
