Hi ladies,
I wanted to ask if any of you had to take progesterone when trying to get pregnant?
Backstory: we now had two miscarriages early on. Both showed an empty sac. The fertility clinic doctor told me to take progesterone in my lady parts nightly starting two days post ovulation. I track ovulation with easy@home sticks and premom app.
This was the first month taking it.
She said if you get pregnant keep taking it till week 8. If you're not, stop at 2 weeks.
We are not pregnant so I stopped at a 2 week post ovulation mark. This was 4 days ago.
However, my period still didn't come yet. I'm a bit nervous, so I wanted to reach out on the forum and see if you had experience with progesterone.
Does it delay your period from starting? Will that delay my ovulation for next month?
So many questions...
In case you're wondering why I didn't ask the doctor at the time. Honestly, I didn't know what to ask. She told me when to take it and how much. I kind of assumed that my period will come on its own even if I'm taking progesterone. Now due to covid it's impossible to get anyone on the line to get answers. I googled but nothing.
Please help if you have any info on this.
Am I worrying for nothing?
