1404364 tn?1289431561 ve only been on either BC pills or progesterone (Prometrium) to start in the past. Anyone have any experience with this?
Avatar f tn My dr. just put me on Prometrium 200mg at bedtime with hope to get my period. Has anyone taken this for similar reason and what was your outcome? We are trying to get pregnant.
Avatar f tn My question is I am almost 14 weeks pregnant and was wondering if these pills can cause harm to the baby? how effective are these pills at preventing miscarriage? Am I still in the red zone for miscarriage even though I am practically in the second trimester of my pregnancy? Somebody please help because I am really concerned about what could happen.
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..
1262373 tn?1281543782 I think what you're talking about is Prometrium. It's more or less Progesterone and is used in women who have a history of miscarriages and can help if you're trying to conceive. There's more uses, but this is the main one I know of.
Avatar f tn Someone please help/ My obgyn prescribed me with prometrium because there was a possibilty that a hormone in my body was low. The same day he prescribed the meds, he ordered some labs and put me on bed rest and had me schedule a follow up in a week. I got the medicine filled at the pharmacy but wasn't exactly comfortable with taking them because my doctor informed me that prometrium is not fda approved. I decided not to take the medication.
Avatar f tn I took prometrium 100mg a day for the first trimester, i stopped taking it last friday so 10 days ago. 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?
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.
1065258 tn?1273784139 Hi ladies.. My RE said it's time to go off prometrium pills (100mg x2 per day) He said to drop down to one pill per day for the next 3 days and then have levels checked. I'm nervous to stop taking it even though I know that placenta takes over I'm still scared because I had spotting a few weeks ago. Did you guys experience going off prometrium? Was everything ok??? Do you feel any different after stopping the medicine ?

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, when they u/s me, the baby don't show movement and no heart beat.. I should only take the prometrium for first 12 weeks, but my OB told me to continued the left pills, they last till my 15&1/2weeks and on that same day we heard my baby's heart's beating.. what do you think is the reason why my pregnancy stopped at above said weeks. is it bec.
Avatar f tn I am having spotting and I am on prometrium pills. My progesterone was 3.2 or a 2.2 and I AM pregenant. They told me I would more than likely miscarry. However, the spotting has slowed down and I'm praying that this baby will make it. If I do however miscarry this time around, I will be on prometrium until I no longer do not want any children.
Avatar f tn I switched from a RE in Czech Republic who did my IVF and supplied my progesterone- vaginal suppositories, to a local OBGYN who gave me a further prescription for progesterone in the form of prometrium capsules (the little pink 100mg balls). My prescription says to be taken vaginally, but the info leaflet says to be taken orally. Can you take the same capsule either orally or vaginally as a suppository?
Avatar f tn So I get a prescription for oral progesterone (Prometrium). Taking 400mg (2 pills a day). I spent $200 on the pills only to find that suppositories are more effective. The nurse told me today, while drawing my blood, that I can use Prometrium as a suppository. I'm hesitant and wanting to know if anyone else has and if it worked well for you. Will be getting lab results tomorrow to see where my progesterone is at.
Avatar f tn I would appreciate any feedback. Very quickly, since I went off the pill in August 2007, I suffered a m/c in December. On 4/14 AF came on time (for the first time might I add) so I figured maybe my cycle will be regular. Well it was from 4/14-4/18 and pretty much consisted of heavy spotting and barely any cramping (unusual for me). Then on 4/26-5/1 - same thing!! So then I went to the OBGYN, after an u/s he believed that I wasn't ovulating. So he put me on Prometrium 200mg for 12 days.
Avatar f tn So he put me on Prometrium 200mg for 12 days. I started it on 5/2 and last night I began spotting. Then today heavy flow (mostly dark brown and kinda gooey) and cramps. I have 3 days left of the Prometrium (after today) and he had said I wouldn't start until 3-7 days after. The whole idea of me taking this is to regulate my cycle (it was either this or birth control for 2 months, but he said since I an TTC to try this first).
422823 tn?1229736847 I took 100mg for one cycle (BFN) and the dr upped it to 200mg - on the third cycle - I got pregnant. I took it before I went to bed b/c of the side effects until I was in my 13th week. I'm now 30 weeks - I'd say, 'what could it hurt'?! I had two miscarriages and they ran a bunch of tests and found I have a blood clotting issue. So when we started TTC again I was told to take baby aspirin and prometrium.
Avatar f tn Itook Crinone too but I asked my Re for estrogen pills, drank a lot of orange jc which I believe contains progesterone
Avatar f tn I have had three very early miscarriages last year..so my doctor put me on Prometrium 200 mg twice a day to keep my progesterone levels up...and yes it has helped me tremendously...my progesterone level was at 72 until my last blood test. my doctor told me i could stop taking it after ten weeks. i had to switch doctors cuz he wasn't for OB. He stopped practicing that some time ago... My last visit to my new doctor was pretty quick...
8987249 tn?1404774097 I used the pills, prometrium and stopped at 10 weeks. I was nervous too but everything was good.
Avatar n tn I saw some mucus tissue pass. The doctor has done several lab tests. all which are normal. He suggests clomid and prometrium pills. I am apprehensive about progesterone pills and birth defects. These pregnancys are by the same father. Do you have any suggestions? Does this form of treatment sound like the next step? My doctor is a obgyn.
Avatar f tn I am currently taking Prometrium twice a day to supplement a drop in progesterone early in my pregnancy. I am already at 13 weeks, have heard a heartbeat and seen the baby in utero doing well. My doc said that it is safe to discontinue the use of the Prometrium at this time. Just wondering what others' experiences were with progesterone supplementation. I am so nervous to stop supplementing!
Avatar f tn As a preventative measure, my RE prescribed prometrium for me. I was a little squeamish about taking the suppositories so I received the tablet form. I need to take 2 tablets 3x a day. I'm looking at the bottle right now and I'm a feeling anxious about it. I'm worried about the possible side affects. I'm scared about fooling around with my hormone levels. Please, please tell me I'm being silly.
372900 tn?1315512302 My doctor put me on Prometrium pills for 10 days to start my period because I was late but didn't ovulate last month. Once my period starts I'm supposed to call the office so they can call in a prescription for Clomid. My question is I'm on day 7 and still no period. I was spotting yesterday but that's it. Should I call the doctor or wait until day 10 to see if it starts? (Day 10 is Saturday.) Has anyone else had to take medicine to start their periods?
Avatar f tn I used one crinone every day and I also took two prometrium pills (am and pm). According to my RE, crinone is just as effective as the shots, if not more effective, since the hormone is delivered right there where it's needed and does not have to go through your whole system first (like the PIO shots do). Wishing you all the best for your upcoming cycle!
