Progesterone side effects & early pg symptoms

[auntcarrie]

Hi there -

This is my first month on progesterone (vaginal capsules). I'm on 5 DPO, and I know in another few days I'll be really looking for early symptoms. Does the progesterone interfere with tihs? I have heard it can cause sensitive / sore bbs... Are there any other symptoms I should probably discount this month as a result of the progesterone? Should I skip symptom surfing in the first place? (I really obsess anyway, wouldn't be a bad idea).

Please let me know, so I can plan accordingly!

Progesterone makes me nauseated, have sore boobs, and really fatigued, not to mention emotional.

Again, vineyard, THANKS!!!

I had a horrible day on Monday at work, got home and while sitting down to dinner with DH couldn't get the bread bag open (tied in a knot, in my slight defense, not a twist-tie). I burst into tears!!! My hub was like, 'whaaa...?'

Crazy!

Blame it on the progesterone.

I agree. Although, this time I'm doing one called endometrin....its a vaginal tablet by Ferring pharmaceuticals. I have actually felt ok on it compared to what I've used in the past. And this time I'm on twice the dose.....

I found that the progesterone I was on caused AF-like symptoms, tiredness, and spotting. Otherwise I was okay emotionally ...

Like I said I always feel crampy, sore boobs, and emotional. However, this is my fourth month on it and I feel exactly the same as any other month but this time it was a . So, I guess you just never know!

Definitely don't symptom track when on progesterone.

Prog support (i'm always on it twice a day when I cycle with IVF) makes me tired, slightly nauseous, sore (.Y.) and vague.

I really hope and I can be strong enough to not listen to symptoms this cycle!!
