prometrium

Avatar f tn I have been on my menstrual cycle for 3 weeks now and i'm starting to get worried. Should I be? I was in the hospital recently with an abscess in my throat and the day after I was released I started my period and it is now 3 weeks later and I am still bleeding and passing alot of clots. A friend told me it could be my body getting rid of all that infection from when I was in the hospital. I am still worried though. Can you give me some advice?? PLEASE????
Avatar n tn My ob/gyn has put me on Prometrium to help regulate my menstrual cycle. My husband and I are trying to concieve our second child. With my first child I was put on prometrium for the first trimester due to low progesterone levels. This month I thought there was a chance I was pregnant and he told me instead of taking it days 16-25 I should remain on it until I know for sure if I am pregnant. I still have not gotten my period, and I am 3 days late.
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 n tn It would be worthwhile to test both of you if only one of you was tested 2) I doubt that the single strand MTHFR finding is significant, but agree that extra folic acid cannot hurt and might help 3) I would hesitate to start prometrium on day 12 of your cycle. Prometrium is given to treat luteal phase defect, but there really is no evidence that we are able to diagnose luteal phase defect, or that luteal phase defect causes recurrent pregnancy loss.
Avatar f tn s RX and is not to be used as the abortion pill. Taking these meds will bring on a menstrual cycle but this can be very painful and come wiith heavy bleeding.
285149 tn?1217046467 This type of bleeding is ordinarily seen five days after conception, so it is easy to see why a woman would confuse this bleeding with her menstrual cycle and there may be some difficulty in determining when the last menstrual period was. Implantation bleeding is not all that common and usually is not more than a slight spotting or a pinkish red colored mucus, but occasionally there is more bleeding associated with it.
Avatar f tn her instructions for the prometrium is to take on cycle day 16 and continue to take until a cycle comes. I stopped taking the prometrium th week before I called her. On th 23, I was told that I didn't ovulated at all. Could you explain your intake on the prometrium process to me so I could have a better understanding how it works. Thank you.
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?
1160986 tn?1486819725 5 mg day 3-7, followed by overlap Gonal F 150 units day 6-10, IUI April 25 and 26 (Sunday, Monday) and about to start Prometrium tonight. My Beta is on May 9th. Good luck to everyone! Here's hoping to keeping each other sane and a BFP soon!
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 took 4 days of prometrium and 2 days after the last dose I got AF.
Avatar n tn Hello, I am hoping that someone out there can help me my last menstrual cycle was on October 18th, 2008. I never got one in November and it is now December and still nothing. I have been haveing lower abdomen pains off and on since I was susspost to get my period in november. I have taken several pregnancy tests and they have come back negative, I also went to the doctors cause I was concerned, but the doctor was a jerk and was not concerned at all.
398459 tn?1262186144 -( The doc now has me on 5 days of prometrium, I think to facilitate a period and start the whole process over. Anyone know about prometrium being used to facilitate a period? How many days later should it start? Any side effects? Thanks for the help.
1262373 tn?1281543782 I am on prometruim on days 14-28, my understanding is that it helps thicken the lining of your uterus and makes you have a period. If I actually get pregnant during a cycle obviously I won't know it until cycle day 28 or so - My question is will taking the prometruim make my cycle start even if I conceive therefore causing an abortion?? Does the prometruim function like birth control causing your cycle to start or will my period only start if I don't ovulate or conceive?
1404364 tn?1289431561 m wondering though if provera is essentially the same as Prometrium? I know Prometrium is more of a natural progesterone and Provera is synthetic, but I have already done 10 days of prometrium and no period came. Ugh...so frustrating! I have not been diagnosed, but I have heard of Metformin. Of the symptoms of PCOS, the only one I have is the absense of a cycle. I will for sure ask about it...it's worth a shot!
Avatar f tn I had a lot of breast tenderness last month bc I was taking prometrium and esterdiol, when I told my doc she said prometrium was causing it, this month I'm only taking esterdiol 2mg a day and I have extermely sore breast again. Not sure if it's due to esterdiol or I'm pregnant.
384150 tn?1399904816 t really find anything. All it really said was that if your menstrual cycle or period had changed, especially a dramatic change, you should consult your Dr. Do you normall get AF 10DPO? Also, are you sure its completely over? I have had on occasion a "temporary stopage" and it started again after several hours. Sorry, I wish I could be more help. I tried to look it up!
1310773 tn?1317095445 I ovulate on my own already, but I have a lot of premenstrual spotting so my doc gave me clone and prometrium, I just started the prometrium yesterday so fingers crossed it helps. What does painful ovulation mean? Has anyone gone through it? I was a bit worried that it may have been a cyst... But I don't know if because I ovulate regulate normally I ovulated multiple eggs.... I was on 50mg clomid and am on 400mg prometrium.
322099 tn?1210273164 I had my 1st cycle trying IUI and prometrium, Dr told me if after 14 past IUI BFN then stop prometrium. Friday was 14 days and of course BFN I stopped in the am and am wondering when AF will show.
Avatar f tn then after I stopped breast feeding my son nothing. BC usually works and brings on my cycle but then it disappears if I stop taking it. RE put me on prometrium 200mg for 5 days. It just finished my last pill on Sat, so now a waiting game. A friend took prometrium for 5 days and had her period 4 days after she took her last pill. Heard it can take up to a week? This is only my 2nd month with RE and 1st time I'm taking any type of meds besides BC.
453798 tn?1262633421 Does anyone take estrace and prometrium? I have googled information on those, but not finding what I want.
Avatar f tn -) And yes, it would be lupron (and possibly b/c) that would help regulate your cycle, not medrol or progesterone. If those are the only two meds he or she is planing on using, then you're right, it's just to help with implantation and maintain the pregnancy. You know, I was thinking....maybe you could ask for a progesterone test the day of transfer to see what your natural levels are. That way, you have the option to change your mind if your levels are low. Just a thought...
1082579 tn?1256228286 so i went to the doc and she gave me some pills called prometrium. it is a progesterone pill designed create a better envrionment for ttc and/or regulate your cycle so that you can get back on track. if you are pregnant the pill will just help your pregnancy progress, but if not you will start your period. i took it for 10 days and started my period about 5 days after i stopped taking them. nowim hoping the meds will give me an extra boost for this month.
637951 tn?1257270344 I took Prometrium for 10 days ending Saturday, and I was wondering how long until I should begin my period? I am so ready to be able to start TTC!!
736040 tn?1257436457 Unfrotunatley about a month or so after my recheck I stopped having my menstrual cycle again. he did a recheck on my levels and they were great! To date i have not had a menstrual cycle for a good 3-4 months. My question is...if my thyroid levels are good, then why wouldnt my menstrual cycle be normal?
1582332 tn?1296924865 Yes, the last few years, My doc told me its due to having Chiari and being around the 50 age range (I'm now 53 and cramps have lessened and so has pain), I still have cycle. I'm tested and my hormones read OK, no change of life yet. Everything is more sensitive, even my teeth and bite. My neck feels suffocated, headache comes and either left or right side of head and neck is intolerable. Being on an acid-free diet has helped me alot (read dropping acid).
Avatar n tn THE ONLY EXCEPTION WAS WHEN I WAS ON MY MENSTURAL CYCLE AND AGAIN I WOULD HAVE EXPLOSIVE DIARREAH (NOTICED A LITTLE BIT OF BLOOD). NOW I AM BACK TO THE PAINFUL DIARREAH, SOMETIMES IT HURTS TO SIT DOWN. i HAVE NO APPETTIE, IF I EAT EVEN A SMALL AMOUNT MY STOMACH HURTS AND FEELS FULL. IT SEEMS LIKE ITS A CONSTANT DULL ACHE OR CRAMPY FEELING THAT FLARES EVERY SO OFTEN. WITHIN THE LAST WEEK THE SUN HAS COME OUT AND ITS BEEN HOT AND I HAVE FELT WORSE AND SICK SINCE THE TEMPERATRE WARMED UP.
Avatar f tn Hi, I am 22, and i am confused about my period. The last one came on the 6th september and till now i haven't seen the next one, and its the 12th of october already and it still hasn't come. Although i had protected sex on the 18th september and another protected one on the 1st october and another on the 4th october, but unprotected. During these periods, i had an ulcer crisis and i was on lansoprazole and amoxillin, tagamet, pcm for about 8 days.
Avatar f tn A woman with a light period is not gaining much thickness in her endometrial lining during the early part of the menstrual cycle. This is usually an indication that estrogen levels are lower than normal. If estrogen levels are low, progesterone levels are likely to also be low and a woman may or may not ovulate with her cycles.
