When to start progesterone

Question

For those with low progesterone, when did you start taking supplements for it?  My dr prescribed pill form to take after my next BFP, but I've read online to start taking a few days after ovulation.  How many days after ovulation, exactly?  Seems like progesterone would be helpful now, especially bc my temps are slow to rise.

Answer

Can you tell me the reason you were put on progesterone? I am wondering if I should bring this up to my doctor as I just had a chemical pregnancy and my progesterone was low.

Answer

Start now, I'm on the same journey. I also am 3dpo currently and about to start my first round of prometrium 100mg 2x daily. They want you to take it 3dpo and take pregnancy test earliest possible. If you are pregnant then continue with the progesterone;however, if you are not then stop taking so that your period can begin. Did your R.E. Also prescribe low dose aspirin therapy? Hope this helps ?.

Answer

I'm 3 DPO, by the way.  Failed to mention that!
