Anyone else feel horrendous on Utrogestan pessaries?

I'm having to insert 3 pessaries per day of Utrogestan (200mg per tablet) after my embryo transfer last week.
I feel horrendous on it. Shattered all the time. Crying at random times. Feel really down. Struggling to concentrate on anything.

I'm currently in the 2 week wait which I've been in countless times, but this time feels worse. Not sure if it's the extra pressure with the IVF - previously I've always had IUIs which was also a stressful process, or if it's the Utrogestan - (previously I was on cyclogest)

Hi,

I feel the same. Very sad and crying spells all dat, I'm not sure if it's the Utrogestan pessaries (I put 2/200mg in the morning and 2 in the evening) but I feel despressed and moody, I feel like the days just before AF shows her ugly head.

@Luna801 yes, same. I'm not even usually like this before AF.
I just feel so so down. I think I've cried 6 times today already and I don't even know why.

Maybe it's a good sign for you, then. Also, my doctor told me that we've been shot up with hormones for a significant period of time and the progesterone is quite high dose so it's normal to feel up and down. I hate the feeling though. lots of baby dust your way

@LetMeIn321 Hi lovely, it's probably not the Utrogestan - I felt how you describe during my fresh transfer (which I used cyclogest for) and feel completely normal this FET cycle (which I'm using Utrogestan for). Best of luck to you

@Luna801 I hope so. I haven't felt very hopeful this time so it will be a surprise if it is good news.
Thank you. Good luck to you too 🌸 ✨

@2mumlife I wonder then what's going on. Could just be feeling down with it all. Thank you. Good luck to you too 🙂
