What progestrone Pessaries side effects did you get?

[Ladyinpink1]

Hello, I started progestrone a couple of weeks ago.

I am currently 5w+5d and I am feeling awful this evening, I have muscle aches all around my upper back (feels like when you get a flu) an uncomfortable stomach sort of a pain but not really sore, and running to the loo quite alot today. I just feel rough and have never felt like this in early pregnancy before, wondering is it the progestrone built up now and effecting me.

Has anyone else had similar symptoms using them, specifically the muscle aches?

I'm 27 weeks and have been on them since 3.5 weeks twice a day. To be honest it's hard to separate pregnancy symptoms from progesterone symptoms! It's been different each pregnancy. My last pregnancy with progesterone I was able to insert rectally for less mess. This time round I had a horribly upset stomach for weeks until I started using it vaginally, so I guess the body just reacts the way it wants.
Could the muscle aches just be all the changes and hormonal surges happening?

I feel awful! Upset stomach, nausea, tiredness, dizziness. No muscle ache yet

Took them rectally as I had spotting when inserted vaginally. I had really upset stomach, terrible gas, sometimes bloody diarrhea (sorry tmi) when i did it rectally but still rather that than spotting.
