Progesterone cream

Hi everyone! Though I haven't used progesterone cream in several months (my progesterone levels have evened out whereas before, my bbt charting was always showing no mid cycle temp increase) I thought I'd share what I learned about its effectiveness: It can make your periods shorter/longer in any given cycle, can make you feel like your boobs may pop off your chest (yeah...mine got super swollen and irritating they felt so stretched with fluid retention), and it can give a girl some serious heat sweats. But...after using it for nearly 3-4 months (using it the whole month each month), I slowly weaned myself off of its use.

Now I do see positive changes. Normal cycle(30 day for me), feel ovulation pains in the tummy(luteal phase begins on the 15th day of my cycle). Just need the DH to step up and want some BDing to happen. Fingers crossed for success someday soon!

So...for someone who still needs a boost from progesterone to help with getting pregnant, advice on the internet was to start applying progesterone 2 days prior to ovulation through the beginning of your expected period or when you get a BFP.

Haven't found mine yet with any method but working towards it. Best wishes and baby dust all around to every couple trying!
