Prometrium for ovulation

Common Questions and Answers about Prometrium for ovulation

prometrium

Avatar f tn 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.
1310773 tn?1317095445 Mostly lower back pain for some reason and I was constantly tired. Have you been on prometrium before? Anyways, If you need to talk please feel free to message me. :D Again, Best Luck!! Lots of SSBD!!
Avatar f tn 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?
1318306 tn?1276180824 I was never very good at temping, so I may not be much help here. I never noticed that prometrium increased my temps and I was on it for several months. I took it orally....not sure if that makes a difference or not. I hope this means a BFP for you...Good luck!!!
Avatar f tn had any of u taken prometrium after a HPT for 12 weeks of ur pregnancy. i'm hopeful this time, just ovulated.... i had 2 miscarriages, so waiting for this time to be a +ve one.
Avatar f tn 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?
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 My OB/GYN gave me Progesterone (prometrium 100mg per day) to take after ovulation. I have been doing this for several months now. I recently started seeing a RE and when I told him I start the prog either 1dpo or 2 dpo, he freaked out telling me that I should not start them until 4dpo because talking starting it any earlier than 4dpo would cause me not to ovulate properly. I always start prog after I get a +opk one day and a temp increase the next day (which I count as o day).
Avatar n tn I'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.
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 f tn A little over a week ago I had a canceled IUI due to too many follicles and very high estrogen. Since then I've been taking 200mg Prometrium twice a day (to bring on my period I think). Also since then, I've had a lot of pain in my breasts. It seems to be getting a little bit better but I thought if it was related to the high estrogen it would be gone by now. It's still very much present. Did anyone ever experience this and is it normal? Thanks!
1105753 tn?1374287348 What I did was take an early pregnancy test about 10 days post ovulation, and if bfn, stopped the prometrium. Not a super scientific method I know, but I found that the early FRER's with first morning urine were pretty accurate at 10 days. I then found I got AF about CD 28 or so. Hope that helps a bit...
Avatar f tn starting the TWW (dastardly little piece of time it is) about 1/12/10 - any one up for doing a 2 week wait group for support and chatting to pass the numbing ticking time???
Avatar n tn t cover any infertility treatment, since I am doing natural intercourse, I asked the nurse that triggering ovulation and monitor not necessary for me and I could use OPK and temperature monitoring. This way I can reduce the cost to minimum But she said "that's how we do this". I haven't consulted a second clinic yet, I just wonder from specialist perspective, is this doctor doing and scribing all necessary or some can be omitted to reduce my cost? Thank you.
887196 tn?1267555107 I had been chartign for 6 months and never had a temp increase after ovulation and my luteal phase was never longer than 8-9 days. I also had breakthrough bleeding/spotting for several days before AF, and AF was very heavy, long, and painful. After doing a lot of research, I felt fairly confident that progesterone was the culprit, and I started using an OTC progesterone cream after ovulation. I got pregnant that same cycle.
666970 tn?1273759854 however, if they are between 10-25 your MD can give you progesterone supplementation because this is considered a viable pregnancy. I asked my MD to prescribe Prometrium for me since it was obvious to me that this was the cause of my miscarriages. Progesterone is what sustains the pregnancy until the placenta takes over. I was instructed to begin taking the Prometrium 3 days after I detected my Luteinizing Hormone (LH) surge via the OPK(ovulation predictor kit).
327405 tn?1223239755 t work then he would put me on birth control for 2 months because that would help also. Well the Prometrium (I took for 12 nights in a row) ended up working and I got pregnant with the ovulation that occured right after taking the Prometrium. I don't know what provera is (depo?), but you might want to ask him about that. I also don't know anyting about ovulex.
1264341 tn?1290051991 I am not on any meds right now. last month my doctor told me to take 200mg of prometrium vag inserts. for ten days. but that was because he thaught i had low progestrone. I will keep you girls updated. i hope this is my month i am 2dpo... i dont know if the prometrium made me ovulate earyl but i like it..
922048 tn?1387942584 I forgot to mention that the cramps started almost exactly when I started Prometrium! (I take that each month 200 mg/day following ovulation.) After looking up the side effects of Prometrium, it seems cramps are a big one! Then, starting yesterday, the cramps came in waves of being very severe! (three times yesterday and once so far today) I'm wondering if maybe my body might be getting too much progesterone or something. I was doubled over with pain and crying! Almost went to the ER!
377493 tn?1356502149 I currently start taking prometrium right after ovulation. For those of you that took baby asprin, I am wondering if you took it just after ovulation, or waited until you knew you were pregnant. I ovulated this week, so I don't want to hold off taking it until I see her if I should be starting it right away. My old OB wasn't very clear on the "when to start".
937427 tn?1247023856 I don't know about absence, but yes on irregular. Many women are irregular due to lack of ovulation or abnormal ovulation. Clomid is rx'd for this reason. It helps women that do not ovulate, do so. It also helps women that have weak o, o stronger. But, it doesn't work for all women. If after 3-6 cycles pregnancy has not occurred, it is not likely to. It is also not good for a woman to stay on it for prolonged periods of time.
Avatar f tn Dr said could be a chemical pregnancy or we could have just miscalculated the ovulation dates. She mentioned starting me on progesterone therapy if the levels are raising. Any advice or suggestions?
691236 tn?1311199974 I had my trigger shot yesterday at 9am. My doc prescribed estradiol, prometrium (both in pill form) and progesterone suppositories for the next 2 weeks until my pregnancy blood test. Anyone else on these and do you know why? My doc just said my hormone levels were very low and he wanted to me take these to sustain the embryo if it does implant. Any knowledge/expereinece you have is greatly appreciated! Thanks girls!
Avatar f tn Anyway, I was wondering what your dr said about the prometrium helping you get preggo? I was just wondering what other uses they use prometrium for besides starting periods..
Avatar n tn ve had three losses already. Anyway I will be on prometrium from ovulation time until pregnancy is confirmed. Once pregnancy is confirmed they will switch me to a weekly injectible progesterone supplements. We see an RE because I have endometriosis ans it's hard for me to get pregnant.
Avatar f tn For the past 2 cycles of TTC, I have started spotting about 5-8 DPO. When it happened last month, I was sure it must be implantation bleeding, but after spotting for a few days, full blown AF showed up. Now this cycle, on 8 DPO the spotting has begun again. It's not enough to even get on my undies, just when I wipe. But when hubby and I BD'd last night, it did get on him a little too.
