Sensitive post - MC’s

[Seasonschanging1]

I have two children but have experienced two miscarriages in the past. I still have a lot of trauma around this, if I informed the GP I’d be trying for a baby again, has anyone been prescribed the progesterone to prevent it happening again?

i’m so sorry you’ve been through this.
I think it depends on your gestation of the miscarriages and where i am they only give it after 3 on the nhs but every trust is different.
NICE guidelines is for it to be prescribed if you have any bleeding in pregnancy but get that you want to take it before.
Could you look into a private prescription if not?

I had two MCs before my DD. I called EPU and told them my history, I did have spotting with both miscarriages. They booked me in for an early scan to check placement and heartbeat then gave me progesterone. I'm pregnant again and they prescribed it no problem. Didn't have to see GP at all. I think it probably depends on your Trust though. We can self refer to EPU where I am.

Do remember that even if you get progesterone it isn’t a miracle cure unfortunately so it won’t necessarily prevent it. I’ve had 2 miscarriages while on progesterone. The only difference it made was I didn’t miscarry naturally as it made my body hold on to it longer. Scanning detected no heartbeat/growth and once I came off the progesterone I started miscarrying naturally.
