Progesterone pessaries - side effects?

Hello, I’m tentatively here at 4+5 pregnant after two miscarriages. I’ve had two strong HCG draws so far (and hopefully more to come).

I have been given progesterone pessaries this time round as a ‘just in case’.

I have been having mild period like cramps, bloat, low appetite and food aversions, very tired, sore boobs, upset stomach, and a strange taste in mouth.

I’m now no longer testing for my sanity so these symptoms are giving me hope everything is increasing as it should be doing, but part of me is wondering if they could just be the pessaries. Are symptoms common with pessaries or could it be safe to hope some of these symptoms are due to my actual hormones/pregnancy?
