Did progesterone suppositories save your pregnancy

Question

Answer

I asked about them at my meeting with my fertility dr the other day and she said that they (Kaiser) doesn't put women on them because there isn't enough research to suggest that they do anything. I thought it was very weird because I see on here all the time about Drs doing that. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

I don’t know if it necessarily saved it. After 2 back to back miscarriages, my OB said my HCG was a little low for how far along I was supposed to be but I think the date was wrong. Either way, they put me on progesterone pills and I’m now 34 weeks. 
I didn’t need them for my first pregnancy (daughter is now 20 months old) so not sure if it was precautionary or actually necessary.

Answer

I have the same answer 😅 Not sure if it saved it, but my levels were low even for not being pregnant. I started the pills about 6-7 weeks and I'm still taking them at 15 😫 My body has experienced every side effect listed for progesterone. And some times I have to skip a day because I literally can't stomach even water. (I have the oral pills I take at night) But thankfully this is my last round and will hopefully be off of it in a couple weeks 🤞

Answer

I don’t know if it saved it but I was on it from the moment I got my positive til 13 weeks. My daughter is now 17 months 😊

Answer

I don’t know that it saved it but I had taken it from the day after my IUI up until this past Saturday (13w) and I didn’t have any bleeding or issues. Prior to getting pregnant I had slightly lowish progesterone after ovulation which cause spotting before my period so I can only assume it helped. It can’t hurt at the end of the day either.

Answer

Not sure if it saved it but they kept me on progesterone until 9w. I’m now 13w4d and doing great 🤗 Good luck to you!
