Utrogestan questions
Anoniem Guest ·
Hi ladies!
After a few early miscarriages, it was determined that my uterine lining is a bit too thin, so the fertilized egg probably didn't stick. The OB-GYN wanted to wait a bit before starting progesterone to see if it would work naturally. Obviously, it didn't work, and we're a few months further along. I have an appointment with her next month to start the progesterone. However, my GP suggested starting now! Her reasoning was: "If it doesn't hurt, it can't hurt."
The only problem is that my GP isn't a gynecologist and wasn't sure what dosage I should take, etc. After doing some research, she prescribed me the lowest dose (100mg) which I should take orally (not vaginally) twice a day.
She advised me to start now (I'm currently 11 dpo) and just keep taking it every day until my OB-GYN appointment next month.
But online I read everywhere that this should only be taken after ovulation? And would it even help this cycle? At 11 dpo, implantation should have already occurred, I think?
In short, lots of questions haha. Help!
Has anyone here experienced this?

I had to take Utrogestran throughout my pregnancy, 1 pill per day, because I was at risk of going into early labor. -

I used Utro when I was just pregnant, after a previous miscarriage. I started after a positive pregnancy test until I was 3 months pregnant, then stopped. My daughter is now 10 months old.
If it hadn't worked out back then, I was supposed to start from the gynecologist after ovulation until the missed period.
So if you can, you can still start now if you'd like.
Good luck in advance! -

Strange that the doctor does this. I have to take them from the gynecologist starting from ovulation until the rest. If I'm pregnant, I keep taking them longer, otherwise I stop until the next cycle. By the way, I insert them vaginally, and it's not really pleasant stuff!
