Will it be okay to start progesterone in 2 days?

Question

Basically I’m 5-6 weeks, my OBGYN said my progesterone is low and he wrote me a prescription for some medication. I don’t have insurance yet, and won’t be able to buy the prescription until Thursday. Will it still be okay?

Answer

You really need to start taking it ASAP Low progesterone can cause a miscarriage

Answer

I'd take it immediately. I lost my 3rd baby for unknown reasons, well next pregnancy they found my progesterone was super low because I reported feeling mini contractions  (not painful) and within 24 hrs of starting the progesterone they went away. I really think the progesterone saved my pregnancy. I would take it. And by the way 99% of the time insurance doesnt cover progesterone anyhow. I had very good insurance but still had to pay out of pocket for my progesterone.

Answer

Can you buy it now and then submit it afterwards? Explain the situation to the insurance company.

Answer

Use goodrx.com my sister used it while she didn’t have insurance to make her prescriptions more affordable
