prometrium and side effects

//menopause.emedtv.com/prometrium/prometrium-side-effects-p3.

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. My breasts hurt and I'm nausous now that I'm NOT taking Prometrium. Wondering if these are normal post medication symptoms or if I might actually be pregnant.

A much better product for me with a lot less side effects. It did delay my cycle recently and once I got a negative BETA, I stopped taking it and 24 hours later my period started. I am now on cd 4 and will ovulate sometime after cd 10 is my guess!

HI everyone I am 3 weeks pregnant and my doctor said my progesterone levels are low and prescribed Prometrium for me to take vaginally until I am 10 weeks pregnant, I am worried because I read up on the drug and there seem to be some serious side effects. Can anyone share their experiences with me?

Wow, actually, I had no side effects from Clomid as well, and I had u/s where they saw one mature follicle developed and then trigger shot and then IUI...so I guess I ovulated.. and my lining was good but I guess they still give you that prometrium pill just to keep lining good..

Hormones have all sorts of side effects. The weird thing is my side effects change each time I am on them. The estrogen has made me nausiated once - even on a low dose. I guess this is why every pregnancy is different. My AF was a little delayed but I think that it was because it takes a few days to get those higher doses of hormones out of your system. You can't start until the levels drop to a certain low level.

-( 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.

HI Mel, Cramping is normal, are you taking Prometrium? I always had lots of side effects, felt preg, so I switched to Endometrin which has less side effects. My side effects with Prometrium was bloating, cramping, sore breast, etc. I think you should take two, one every 12 hours, because with only taking one, my AF does arrive, but taking two, it stays away like it is supposed to. Then you have a beta and if beta negative, you go off of progesterone and af arrives in 1-2 days.

I'm taking prometrium (200mg) once a day at bedtime post ovulation. I should be 9 or 10 DPO. I've been taking it 9 days. I know that taking this can cause pregnancy symptoms, but my question is: does it build up and intensify as you take it day after day. Ex: my breasts are larger but the tenderness has been very mild, then disappeared, until last night. They were very sore on the sides mostly last night, but then this mornng they are tender all over.

t build up resistance to it). I was not able to use prometrium because I had bad side effects from it (I felt dizzy and exhausted when I took it). I have hormone testing annually to make sure my balances are right. I feel good on this regimen. About testosterone, I was tested, and found out I had bound testosterone (testosterone that is chemically bonded to a protein called Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin) showing in my tests but I needed more free testosterone so my body could use it.

I used it with 2 of my pregnancies and the oral kind with one pregnancy. I didnt have any side effects from any of them. And they are messy, I did mine at night before bed so it didnt leak out and you get the full benefits. Good luck to you.

Also, is anyone taking Prometrium orally? What dose are you taking and what time of day do you take it? Are you worried about any side effects it may have on the baby?

It is my 2dpiui and I started to take prometrium two times a day starting yesterday. I have noticed that my color of urine is different now, its bright yellow...Did this happen to anybody else who takes Prometrium? I think it is because of it, I can't think of anything else though. Thanks! Anya.

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 my immune system to produce antibodies for HSV Type 2? Or is it possible this medicine could cause a false positive or a positive blood results for Herpes Type 2? I not sure what to do next.

Good Luck to you! I asked my dr. about some side effects when I was on Progesterone and he laughed and said, NO! About the only thing the progesterone will do is make you hungrier. Hope you get your BFP!!

I think it did delay when my period started but not that I would get it. Also - the side effects of prometrium are the same as implantation bleeding and PMS - drove me super nuts. I would have sworn I wasn't pregnant the third go round with prometrium but in fact I was - due to deliver in July. Good luck.

ve been taking prometrium vaginally twice daily for 13 days now (started the day after my IUI) and on day 10, I started noticing a headache, a dull gnawing sensation on both sides of my head. It is day 14 of prometrium now (CD32) and I am still feeling this. If I bend over to pick up something it hurts even more.

This month I used an ovulator kit and BD on the right days and took prometrium as soon as I ovulated, so why am I not pregnant. I have all the symptoms; but this can also be prometrium side effects. I really do not believe that I am pregnant because I have not experienced any spotting. I am SO frustrated. Has anyone gone through the same experience?

I was on prometrium suppositories until my 8th week to enrich the environment. Both my IVF dr and my OB said it can be discontinued after 8 wks when the placenta takes over. I just went off of it last week and haven't noticed a difference. The dr said it can also interfere with the blood test for nuchal transparency and d/s testing. Good luck!

ve read the prescription information pamphlet over and over, and that is apparently a side effect. But with my history...I just need to know if anyone else experienced the same while taking Prometrium but still was able to have a healthy baby.

m getting close to the third. It was a horrible waiting game b/c the side effects of prometrium were just about the same as early pregnancy and PMS! Good luck.

I was in prometrium 200mg once a day with my 3rd pregnancy..and still i m/c at 17&1/2 weeks.. and i stopped taking the prometrium at my 15&1/2weeks( i should only take them for 12 weeks, but my dr told me to continued the left pills..) still don't know the reason why,, if it's bec. i stopped taking the progesterone supplement or there is some thing else..

Has anyones RE ever discussed possible side effects to the fetus when using progesteron supplementation? I just read the insert for the gel Crinone and it mentions possible cleft palate and abdominal wall malfunctions. My RE didn't seem to know anything about this. What it didn't give in the insert was whether the difference between those taking Crinone and those not taking it was significant.

ESPECIALLY AFTER I READ ALL THE POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS I WAS LIKE OMG I REALLY DONT WANT TO TAKE THIS BUT EVERYTHING SEEMS FINE I HAVENT HAD NE SIDE EFFECTS WHAT SO EVER ACNE, WORRYING, STRESS, VOMITING, NAUSEA ETC.

I am a bit unsure about the provera due to some side effects? How did you find the prometrium I think its similar.

Any side effects? I am waiting on my test results and hopefully they will be open Wednesday so I can get the order and go in for my 2nd Beta as well.
