Prometrium natural

Common Questions and Answers about Prometrium natural

prometrium

Avatar n tn Prometrium is the same progesterone as that which the ovary makes - so it is 'natural'. It is probably safe to take throughout the first trimester. There are some researchers who believe that there might be a very small increase in the risk of a birth defect in boy babies called hypospadias - with hypospadias the urethral opening is on the underside of the penis rather than at the tip or end.
1370609 tn?1306380021 Anyone here had a natural pregnancy without IVF and had to use Progesterone Endometrin 2 times a day and had a sucessful long term pregnancy?
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 have always wondered if the suppositories affect the eggs and she thinks that prometrium caps are better. Any thoughts about this ladies? This is what she ported: "My RE uses prometrium gel caps instead of progesterone inserts or shots to help with implamentation and the eggs "sticking" They said since they switched, and have started using the prometrium, their success rates have skyrocked and success rates have went through the roof!!!!
Avatar f tn I was on crinone (vaginal) and prometrium during my first pregnancy (IVF), and on prometrium only the second time around (natural pregnancy). Best wishes for the remainder of your pregnancy!
Avatar f tn Hey girls ~ was told yesterday that having Prometrium prescribed as a suppository was ludicrous ~ that Crinone Gel is mega better and sticks as opposed to the Prometrium which just drips out "because it was made to be taken orally ~ not vaginally ~ and anyone who suggests it is just playing with being a Fertilization Specialist"....
594293 tn?1222655980 Yummy?! Lol.....well, I don't know about taste testing it! It's actually a natural progesterone cream. I suppose if I have one of those 'menopausal moments', I could try eating it for SUPER fast results!! (Just kidding.....please kids, don't try this at home...wink wink). Seriously though, it's a cream that the local health food store sells. It is supposed to be a very natural alternative to Rx progesterone. I have purchased a bottle but have not yet tried it out.
Avatar f tn Progesterone above 20 is great! Your levels will fluctuate throughout the day so it is possible that the "drop" was just that your progesterone was low at that particular time of the blood draw. There's no harm in taking the supplements (I'd do oral supplements, aka Prometrium, as opposed to suppositories since your prog. is above 20) if it helps to ease your mind. You'll have to stop taking them by week 10-12.
1110747 tn?1295844043 I took prometrium until 12w and everything is going good. Good luck!
760797 tn?1303264540 just checked and prometrium IS natural progesterone. don't let anyone put you on a synthetic progestin. check your scripts and be sure they are bioidentical, natural progesterone NOT progestins.
935576 tn?1246071706 I used the progesterone pills (Prometrium) this current pregnancy and now I'm almost 22 weeks. I've had 2 miscarriages in the past. Progesterone will work in a viable pregnancy (meaning there is nothing genetically wrong with the embryo). But if it is a blighted ovum or molar pregnancy then the progesterone won't work. It serves to keep your uterine lining from thinning out and thus miscarrying in the event your little one is perfectly healthy.
Avatar f tn I've been taking 200mg of prometrium everynight since I found out at 4 weeks I'm currently 9 weeks my dr wants me to take them until 16 weeks. I was prescribed them because I had two miscarraiges in a row both at 5-5 1/2 weeks and they think it may have been due to low progesterone.
907699 tn?1251630847 I am on 50mg of progesterone suppositories that have to be made at a compounding pharmacy. I get mine shipped and they are working cuz my temps have gone up. The suppositories go straight to the area needed from what I hear.
Avatar f tn I read on one of these threads about someone who did an FET with no meds. Is this possible? They want me to take Medrol and prometrium (vaginally). I know what the prometrium is for and will probably not fill the rx, but what exactly is the medrol for? Is it's only purpose to keep the body from rejecting the embies? I really want this cycle to be as "natural" as possible with no meds. Thanks for any info you can offer.
Avatar f tn You produce progesterone naturally and it increases to help maintain pregnancy. I have been on prometrium and vaginal suppository progesterone since 4 weeks.
Avatar f tn I've been doing some research on prometrium . 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.
Avatar f tn I stopped the Prometrium for 10 days and MY BLEEDING STOPPED ENTIRELY so it has to be the Prometrium. I know I need progesterone as still have my uterus but am I the only one that is seeing this happen? I was told by Sott Pelle providers that a women minimally needs progesterone 14 days every third month. Can someone tell me their experience with this?
611020 tn?1290571629 Does anyone know if you're taking Prometrium, and you are miscarrying, can the prometrium prevent any sign of the m/c ? i.e. can it prevent spotting/bleeding/cramping , or will the m/c go through anyway.?

490183 tn?1361213953 Yes, Prometrium does delay your AF. First time when i was on prometrium, i didn't get my AF until CD40.
1160986 tn?1486819725 They told me to stop my Prometrium today and since it was my first time on it, I was wondering if anyone knows if AF will be heavier?
Avatar f tn Just finished my 3rd round of clomid and now dtd - will be taking prometrium as I should ovulate around 11th - keeping fingers crossed this is my first time with prometrium and since i have low progesterone and a luteal phase defect i am hoping it will be "the one"! 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 f tn 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..
