Progesterone Supplements

[katespade]

Has anyone taken progesterone to help regulate their cycles?

My doctor is prescribing 200 mg 1x/day from CD16-25, and I guess I'm just looking for anecdotes about what to expect. Does it take time for my body to adjust to it, or should I notice a difference right away? Any side effects I should keep an eye out for? Any other helpful hints or tips? Any TTC success stories to share?

I'm nervous. I don't like taking meds as a general rule, and I've had pretty bad luck with hormones in the past, but my doc seemed really nonchalant about this one so I'm trying not to get too freaked out about it.

I took it two cycles ago to bring on my period. I didn’t really notice anything out of the ordinary when I took it.

I used the suppositories when pregnant (so vaginal, not oral or the shots), but I actually didn’t notice any side effects.
