Help! Taking the wrong dose of Progesterone

Long story short I've been taking 400mg a day rather than the prescribed 800mg. I'd been given 200mg pessaries and I had read on my protocol that I had to take those 2 times a day. However I missed the in brackets bit that said 2 x 200mg pessaries for each dose. I called the nurse and she says this happens a quite a bit and not to worry but as I've got my FET in 2 days I'm very worried!

Has anyone else done this? I feel like a prize idiot 😞

No personal experience with FET, but think the best way is probably to give your clinic a call and see what they can advise you to do. Think before the transfer they'll scan and check you (maybe bloods?) to make sure everything is fine before proceeding.

Thanks, @katerose2022 for responding!
The clinic called me back and did some tests and put me on injectables alongside my pessaries which is not fun! I'm hoping I only have to take these for a couple of days but it might be for 8 weeks! 😬

A lesson learned haha!
