Hi all, looking for a little info, had 2 early miscarriages one in December 5 weeks and one at 8 weeks late February. (Roughly weeks for feb MC, as didn't know when MC happened only found out when went for a early scan had a belighted ovum)

Im going to contact the doctor to speak about progesterone, I've read up on it and can help prevent miscarriages but, not always.

Im not even sure if I'm pregnant this month, I've got 5 days left of the dreaded 2ww.
How soon should I take it before I know I'm pregnant or after I get a positive ?

Thanks for all your time,

🩵

I'm currently on progesterone and low dose aspirin after 2 miscarriages. Both discovered after spotting at 7 weeks but on both occasions, there was never a baby to be seen on the scan. Upon getting our BFP this time, I contacted the EPU who prescribed me progesterone straight away and booked a scan in for 6 weeks where we saw a heartbeat. I'm desperately hoping things will go well this time but so far we've made it past 7 weeks.

Sorry to hear of your journey, fingers and toes crossed for you 🩵🤞🏻

This is really helpful information thank you, I think I may way to find out if I get a positive before I contact EPU.

Thanks again for your time
