prometrium and missed period

This is my first time posting a question so bear with me. I'm a 24 y/o F who has been trying to get pregnant since last April. I have very irregular and missed periods so my Dr. put me on 10 days of Prometrium. I had few side effects, fatigue, dizziness and some nausea. After the 10 days on the pill I am supposed to get my period and on day 3 of normal mentration return to the clinic for lab work to diagnose polycystic ovaries. It's been 7 days and no period yet.

I talked to the doctor today who told me to stop the prometrium and I should expect my period in 2-3 days. I had my hopes up that perhaps I was pregnant because I know some women who have not gotten a positive on a home pregnancy test until a week after the expected period. I think I had my hopes up too much when the period was late when in fact it may have been the progesterone that was delaying my period. Has anyone had experience on progesterone like this?

Often times a very delayed period or missed period can indicate that ovulation did not occur which in turn causes your hormones to be wacky for that month. Your doc can prescribe prometrium to bring on your period.

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!!

My last 2 cycles I miscarried. First one was a missed miscarriage and there was no symptoms and was 12 weeks, the second one was early (6 weeks) and I had cramping but no bleeding. Even went and had another beta which was 0 and didn't bleed till I shopped the prometrium. I guess it depends on the dose you are on. I take 200mg 3x a day, vaginal suppositories. Even with my fresh ivf that didn't work I didn't get af till I stopped the prometrium. I hope that helps!

My husband and I are TTC our first child. I took clomid 50(cycle2) on Jan 11th (3-7)after 5 days my period has started and i'm still bleeding with clots.Doc has prescribed me the prometrium 200 mg for 5 days to stop.Then he is asking me to take clomid100 for this cycle3. 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.

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.

When I do, I recommend that you test your urine daily with urine ovulation prediction starting on day 10 or 11, have intercourse the day the urine turns positive and the day after, and then start prometrium 3 days after the urine turns positive; this way you know that you are starting the prometrium at the correct time. I personally would be very hesitant to start prometrium on day 12 - I think that is too early and could make things worse.

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. He just made me take a urine test and felt my stomach, he said that if I don't get my period by January to come back and see him. I am not sure what to do, something just doesn't feel right.

My progestrone level was low when I was tested in the first weeks of pregnancy and my dr put me on the prometrium and they went up to normal. My dr said this was most likely was causing me to miscarry, without enough progesterone the baby can not properly attach to the utern wall. I hope this helps. I am now pregnant again and have been taking prometrium for 2 weeks now ( I am 5 weeks) and so far so good. we go for an ultrasound in 2 weeks so we are keeping our fingers crossed.

Does anyone take estrace and prometrium? I have googled information on those, but not finding what I want.

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. Then RE said she's going to put me on Estrace one my cycle comes? I'm hoping for the best? We also are trying to get pregnant. Isn't so frustrating! Good Luck.

my doctor put me on prometrium. 1st month 10 days later i got my period. 2nd month 10 days later i only spotted for a day and no period. Did this happend to anyone? What could it be?

Hello everyone! I am new here, I hope that you don't mind me posting. I had a missed miscarriage in October followed by a D&C, following that I bled on and off for a month and then got my period. My period has since been very heavy and has quite a bit of clots in it. I also get spotting at randomn times in my cycles. I went to see the doctor today and she prescribed some progesterone tablets to sort out my period.

so you are saying that if I get pregnant while on the prometrium my risk of miscarriage is not going to be higher and the meds won't force a period right?

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.

Just concentrate on getting yourself as healthy as poss and take folic acid and look after yourself. Have you had 1st period yet? I'm hoping mine will be this weekend/ next wk.

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.

I was prescribed prometrium since the month of Feb. In Feb.,I ovulated with the help of clomid and prometrium. My progesterone levels were 34. In March my cycle never came and I contacted my Dr on Apr. 9 letting her know I never had my cycle. She schedule me to take some test to take . On 14 my cycle visited and was very weird . 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.

from what my re and ob told me it is ok to have sex during pregnancy. also u might want to talk to your dr about prometrium (sp) it is suppose to help with making it easier for baby to latch and hold on. I have had 3-4 mc. i was on it for 1 of them. Gl.

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!

t bleed more than a day. Never got my period. Saw the doc on Oct 13 and did blood work and started Prometrium 400mg for 10 days to induce period. Finished Prometrium on Oct 22. Today is Nov 3 and still no period. My doc said I should get my period within a few days of stopping the Prometrium. Data for Prometrium says should get a period within 7 days. It's now been 12 days since stopping the Prometrium. The bloodwork showed hCG level at 1, TSH at 1.32 and Prolactin at 8.9.

My menstrual period is delay for 8 days, I had already three negative pregnancy test and my doctor recommended a blood test, which was negative also. My doctor wants me to wait another 2 weeks and if I don't get my menstrual period, do another round of blood test. I thought the blood test was definetively, if it was negative is because I'm not pregnant. Does anybody have any comments?

I do have irregular periods and sometimes go months with out a period and sometimes go months with having a period. Last year I had a 60lbs cyst removed that they believed to be coming from my left ovary and I had to have my left ovary partially removed so I'm workin on one ovary and one fallopian tube. Although when they did the ultrasound I can't remember the name of it(where they put dye in you and you can see if it splashes out of the tubes on the monitor..

I took 4 days of prometrium and 2 days after the last dose I got AF.

No. It's clear and regular. I'm not taking anything. I did Clomid during my period and then just a regular IUI (no injections).

Since my IUI i have been on Prometrium twice a day. My question is... will i get a period if not pregnant while taking Prometrium?
