Progesterone Tablets Preterm labor?

Question

My doctor suggested I start taking a progesterone tablet (vaginally) every day (I’m 17 wks) until I give birth to prevent preterm labor. My first was born early, but I’m wondering if anyone else has done this?

Answer

I’m currently doing this right now, except I started at 20 weeks and I’m currently 31+6.

Answer

I haven’t been instructed to take them through the end of my pregnancy but I did IVF and I had to do them 3x a day for the first 10 weeks of pregnancy. My only advice is panty liners, you will definitely need them! Other than that no side effects in my experience at least.

Answer

I had Makena (progesterone) shots from 16 to 36 weeks and got induced a day shy of 39. My first came at 36 weeks

Answer

I know this is from awhile ago but im in the exact same boat. How did this end up working out for you?

Answer

Yes then they upgraded me to makena shots when they had to pull me off of and then I was induced at 37 weeks any ways 😖
