Hi ladies, long story short. I had 3 early miscarriage and not much help from the hospital so did some research and ordered some progest off amazon. I got my bfp 2weeks ago and have been prescribed cyclogest 400mg per day. So my question is should I stop the prepay now im on cyclogest or continue with both? Internet reviews tend to sway towards progest being better than cyclogest but I don't want to risk inducing another mc
Any advice appreciated
 
Im unfamiliar with cyclogest.. is it a brand name for progesterone? I too have been considering going on progesterone as I have had no luck so far maintaining pregnancies. This one, I've added baby aspirin to the prenatals but I'm still so early its hard to tell if its making a difference or not. let me know how things go

advice: ask your doctor/midwife what you should do concerning the progesterone/cyclogest b/c I do know that proges. requires a very strict dosage and timing and you have to stop using it once youre in the 2nd tri ... if you dont follow the dosage precisely, you risk miscarriage.. scary i know but ive heard many success stories concerning proges. good luck!
 
400mg cyclogest is a strong dose so I would suggest only to use that. I was on 200mg and it helped so think 400mg would be enough in your case.
 
I'm currently on 400mg of cyclogest too. I don't know much about what you bought off Amazon. I would just be scared of lowering the dose in case it brought on a bleed or something.
 
The ProGest cream is only 20mg per dose, so a very small amount compared to your prescribed progesterone. I'd ask your doctor, but I'm guessing it's fine to stop the cream.
 
Thanks ladies im down to my last 4 'portions' of progest so will have to cut down anyway as not got enough to last so thjnk il do one a day instead of 4 and see how I go. Fx that its works couldn't cope if I brought on my mc x
 
Just to update used last progest a few days ago. Been for my reassurance scan today an peanut doing fine. Ive had more delivered so debating whether to start using it again.
