Cyclogest vs pregnancy symptoms

[AdriannaP]

I had two MC and have been prescribed cyclogest pessaries. I have started 2x400 a day after ovulation and about 7 DPO I started having the following symptoms: sore breasts, frequent urination, headaches, metallic taste in mouth.
I initially thought pregnancy symptoms but now I am wondering if cyclogest side effects. Can anyone share their experience with cyclogest?
I am 14 DPO now and so far tested negative. (Last test two days ago)

I'm sorry for your losses ❤️ I've now had 4 miscarriages, but was prescribed cyclogest to take from 7dpo until 14dpo to support a pregnancy following my 3rd loss. I did concieve and tested positive at 12dpo. I think if you've tested negative today I think it's likely its the extra progesterone causing potential symptoms. I was told to stop the cyclogest at 14dpo if it was negative.

Sadly, additional progesterone didn't help me and I went on to miscarry at 9 weeks.

Is this your first time using them? I caught on my second cycle. Wishing you luck.

Hi @VenusStarr thanks. Sorry to hear about your losses too. yes my first cycle.
I have not tested for two days. I thought AF would come if I am not pregnant, but maybe I need to test again and then stop?
I am 14 DPO now and AF is three days late (ovulated late in cycle). It’s so frustrating that you get all these strong side effects from cyclogest.
I was convinced I was pregnant 😔

It's really hard @AdriannaP definitely test today, you might have had a late implantation. I think your period might be delayed a day or two by taking the cyclogest.
