*I tried posting this in the pregnancy 21-34 community but didn't get much feedback, wasn't sure if this is a better place to post this question*
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).
It usually takes 1-2 days for me to start AF after going off of Prometrium if I am taking two a day one in the morning and one at night.
Well the reason I was starting Prometrium is to regulate my cycle and hopefully start OV'ing, but I was under the impression that I would start AFTER I was done especially since I've been going back and forth with bleeding for the past 3 weeks.
I just started taking the prometrium 200mg a day i ovulated last tuesday and did what I was told to do... how fast does this really work is my question. My husband is excited and weve been trying for 6 years and well I dont want our hopes to get up! I'm 29 years old.
I am TTC and taking crinone gel on day 17 until I get my period. I have noticed that I start having some mild cramps around 5 or 6 days after starting the crinone suppositories. Has anyone else noticed this? It seems to be working b/c I am not having mid-cycle spotting anymore and my cycles have gone from 24 days to around 32 days.
Oh and your luteal phase should be a full 14 days! If you are getting your period in 10 days then your progesterone levels need to be rechecked as you might need more progesterone! you need mroe time for a baby to implant.
I got a shot every week starting at 16weeks, thank God tomorrow is my last one
so dr said when i got preg again he was going to put me on prometrium (progesterone) pills and lovenox. i also had been taking extra folic acid and prenatals before i got preg. i was on the lovenox injections til 20 wks, am off of that now and just take a baby aspirin daily. he said my case wasnt one of the better ones and that my danger zone would have been up to 16 wks. im thrilled to say im almost 30 wks preg with my first and last lil girl!!
I took it through the first trimester and my baby was/is fine (11 months old now). I also took 200mg prometrium and probably 3g of folic acid. What I read was that synthetic progesterone is what is not safe during pregnancy but prometrium is the natural form and it is safe for pregnant women.
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).
t exactly comfortable with taking them because my doctor informed me that prometrium is not fda approved. I decided not to take the medication. When I returned to the doctor a week later, he said that my hormone level came back at 12.4 and informed me that that is extremely low. He said that my body would have had to have produced more of the hormone otherwise I would have already miscarried. (Before the appointment with him, I had an ultrasound done that confirmed everything was normal.
I had an IUI a few weeks ago and then started taking prometrium for ten days. I finished up last Wednesday so it has been 5 days. How long until I should expect my period after my last prometrium?
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!
I had 2 miscarriages in the past and with this one i went on prometrium and baby aspirin although nothing was ever diagnosed either. i did not experience any bleeding as a side effect of the prometrium though. have you had a scan yet?
Hm, I didn't hear that one. I am 5 weeks and 2 days and the hubby and I have carried on as we always do (at least every 2-3 days) and no ill effects. Have you ever had testing done after the miscarraiges to see what was causing them. Sometimes they wait until the third one before they do.
