Anyone else on progesterone suppositories?! (A little tmi)

Question

I am 6 weeks and 5 days pregnant with my second. I had 3 previous miscarriages before having my daughter and with this pregnancy I have been put on progesterone suppositories. I've been using them for a week now but have been bleeding(lots of red blood) since the day after I started them. I don't have cramps and have been to the doctor and he says all is well but I am just really tired of the bleeding. It just scares me everytime I go to the restroom. I was just wondering if anyone else had the same problems while taking progesterone suppositories and what I can do!

Answer

I've been on progesterone suppositories for 2 and a bit weeks now (twice a day). Went for 7 week 2 day US yesterday and all fine. No bleeding with them either. Good luck and hope it all sorts itself out with you!

Answer

My dr just started me on progesterone 3 days ago, it makes me very nervous too, but so far just a lot of discharge. :/

Answer

I take progesterone suppositories but haven't had any bleeding. I doubt the bleeding has anything to do with the progesterone. But if your doc says everything is ok, I wouldn't worry about it! Did he give you any reason for the bleeding?

Answer

I'm supposed to be getting progestrone cream today... Maybe you could get switched to something else like that?

Answer

Doctor said bleeding/spotting in the first trimester can be perfectly normal and happens to lots of woman. That's all. But I read that the suppository can irritate the cervix and make it bleed. I went back in today because my progesterone was still really low and talked to him about it and now he has me on the shot everyday instead of the suppository to see if the bleeding will stop.
