anyone prescribed progesterone?

Question

Tomorrow morning I'm supposed to pick up my 100 mg progesterone and "take it" before bed. Anyone ever had this? My progesterone level was 14.5 today. Doctor said she wants it above 20. I'm 4+2 weeks.

Answer

Both times I was pregnant I need it.. after a month or so, you stop taking it. Went yesterday for 1st Dx visit and drew blood, the prescribed it right away. 
Don't stress, it's just to help.

Answer

I'm on it now! Same application of "taking" . My boobs are huge and so sore! Not sure if it's just the pregnancy or also a Side effect of he progesterone . Regardless, hubby loves it :)

Answer

I am also taking Crinone for the first time. I'm 6w3d, progesterone went from 18 to 13 so I requested it. I take it twice a day, morning and night. Mine is the 8%. Just a forewarning bc I am currently experiencing this, but you may get constipated...it sucks. Also don't be alarmed if little brownish clumps come out when you wipe. I guess the gel reacts to your body's hormone and can change color. Also, you may tap your cervix and cause a little (normal) bleeding to occur just because there's so much blood accumulating there. Good luck!

Answer

I will be getting on it tomorrow . I used it for my last pregnancy also. Doc said this time it was up to me , and for peace of mind I am going to do it again.

Answer

I had to take it with my first child. I started cramping and bleeding at about 8 weeks. Found out my progesterone was extremely low and they thought I may miscarry so they put me for a while. It intensified my nausea but it was better than losing my son. He's a healthy 7 year old now 😊

Answer

I just started the suppositories tonight. My nurse said my levels were ok but they want me on it a precautionary measures due to my history.

Answer

I'm on it every month from ovulation and for 2 weeks if not preg stop until next ovulation... if preg take until 10 weeks.. I've had 2 miscarriages which is why I started mine early

Answer

My last pregnancy my Dr had me get the 2 shots and I took the suppositories twice a day. It was u pleasant. I suggest wearing a panty liner. But I will say I have a healthy 1 ur old so totally worth it

Answer

I'm taking it also!

Answer

I was at 18.5 at 5 weeks. I also got 100mg of progesterone. My dr likes it to be at least 20. It just helps support the pregnancy. It may intensify your symptoms though. I just feel more tired and dizzy when I get up too fast. Nothing to worry about.
