Confused about when to take progesterone

im about to start oestrogel and utrogestan. The lack says to take for half of my cycle (day 15 to 16.) but I have a long cycle and am not sure when to take it! Do you just stick to the two weeks out of four whatever? I’m going to start the gel on day 1 of my period and then I guess I’ll just count the 15 days from there? Thanks!

My understanding is that it’s two weeks on two weeks off and your cycle adjusts - ie it regulates your cycle

Ah, well that’d be great!

It is! My flow is a lot less too which is very welcome. It did take a couple of months for the cycle to even out
