Prometrium effects on fetus
Common Questions and Answers about Prometrium effects on fetus
prometrium
I was on prometrium with my last pregnancy, and although the pregnancy didn't work out, it had nothing to do with prometrium. There are so many women on here who took it during pregnancy to have all turn out just fine. Its a pretty common thing to give us "older" expecting moms. I already have a prescription for it as I am to start taking it again as soon as I get another positve pregnancy test. As far as I know its perfectly safe to take during pregnancy.
So I research the medicine and I have mix feelings about it because it has only been used on a few pregnant humans but they have tested it on animals and there fetus had no problems. OK 1. IM 6 WEEKS 2. THOSE ANSWERS ABOUT THE MEDICINE WAS NOT reassuring. .. Has anyone had low progesterone and what did you do?
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.
Which I understand is a form of progesterone. After seeing a fertility doctor I learn that there are many side effects to the fetus. I just recently went through a clomid cycle with success. I am 4 weeks 3 days pregnant. Today the doctor called and wants me to begin taking Crinone because again my lining is thin. I am very nervous that it is going to effect my baby in a negative way. Do the positive effects of Crinone out weigh the negative. I don't know what to do.
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.
Because I had a miscarriage last year. They put me on prometrium. As soon as I found out I was pregnant. I went to get my HCG and progesteron checked. it was HCG 130 and progesterone 45.8 which is good. But they put me on it just in case. I started seeing a new doctor now and she she is sending me to a specialist for the medicine to see if I really need to keep taking the medication, because it could be harmful to a developing fetus. My appointment is Friday.
I'm so sory for your loss. I'm suffering multiple micarriages as well ( 8 times). All of them were unexplained early miscarriages , until I found out after the seventh miscarriage that I have a blood clotting disorder called Factor V Leiden. That factor causes blood clotting so blood doesn't reach the fetus and miscarriage happens! I was on blood thinners during the eighth pregnancy but unfortunately miscarried too ! I really had so hard times and was so depressed.
Well, I have pcos too and my doctor put me on metformin 500mg three times a day and prometrium 200mg twice a day for 10 days each month. The metformin is good for me insulin levels and working with the prometrium my periods have come back after years of not having one. If your periods aren't coming and you're not ovulating it's so hard to have a baby. Ask your doc about putting you on metformin and prometrium or clomid. :) Good luck!
thanks. I was thinking back and i think the first 2 days I took it it did make me feel a bit ill (I think I posted about it back then) but then it was like I wasn't even taking anything...felt just fine. Who knows. But I still feel like yuck.

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.
I also found that I ovulated earlier the next cycle, like my body wanted to stay on track. The side effects were hard on me.
Tjimenez10- Enodometrin is much better, just started taking it back in May instead of Prometrium. 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!
I pretty much knew on my own I had low progesterone from my last miscarriage in July and because they wouldn't prescribe anything until more bloodwork the next time I was pregnant I took matters into my own hands a little and decided to use progesterone cream as I had read a lot about it and saw the positive effects... Most likely the reason I've held onto this one so far I'm only 4 weeks 2 days and progesterone level was 16.11 they want above 20 and hcg was 295...
I am in the same boat as the original poster. I have been taking prometrium vaginally the day after IUI which was on May 25th and i have started headaches today....
