The Quest for Cyclogest

Hi ladies,
So having just suffered my third chemical pregnancy (two back to back) all at 5.5 weeks I am pretty certain I have a progesterone deficiency. I have lots of signs - brown spotting before and after period, heavy periods, migraines, fatigue and tender beasts.

I have an appointment with my GP on Friday and I am looking for advice on how to persuade a reluctant GP to prescribe me cyclogest. I know there is no real evidence of it helping but you can’t ignore all the women on her who have had success after taking it.

I have been referred to the recurrent miscarriage clinic but the wait is long and I really want to be able to give progesterone support a try.

My only other option is to pay £££ to see if a private consultant will prescribe it.

Any advice on how I can persuade my GP would be much appreciated!
