Anyone out there being treated for Low Progesterone???

[rachel2557]

Hi ladies. I'm currently being treated for a low progesterone level of 7.3 at 5+2. It was increasing on its own appropriately but was still so low that I was experiencing bleeding and cramping so we started suppositories at 6+3. The nurse who called in my Rx made a mistake and only had me taking them once a day instead of twice. The bleeding stopped, but the cramping continued. When I went back today at 8+3, they caught the mistake and put me on 100 mg twice a day. The would not repeat an u/s.

I was just wondering if anyone else had success with progesterone? Any hopeful stories out there? I'm still just so worried and upset.

hi there rachel,
I take progesterone 100mg twice a day. I had very mild spotting when I was 8 weeks. I did not have cramps. I was on progesterone few weeks and then I was fine. They again started me on the med when I was 18 weeks after I got my cervix stitched. progesterone supplements helps in relaxing the uterus. Have your cramping stopped after you started taking twice a day?
