Hi ladies
So I am on 400mg Cyclogest pessaries twice a day after ICSI/IVF.
Today is 4dp2dt.
I am wondering what all side effects others got from the progesterone.
I have bad bloating and very sore (and larger) bbs.
I think from scanning online that these are quite usual side effects. Yet the patient leaflet inside the pack says it can be taken for the relief of PMS and specifically mentions reducing bloating & breast tenderness. How does that work??? The leaflet also mentions that you should contact your dr if you have flatulence as a side effect. I am generally a bit windy ahem, being a vegetarian, however I have been worse on the progesterone, but how bad should it be before you contact dr and why is this so seious? I'm also having a fair bit of leakage with the pessaries.
The final concern I have about the progesterone is that my clinic gives a two wk supply - to be taken from ER to either AF or BFP. But if you get a BFP how do they know your body is producing enough of its own progesterone? Will it be a problem to just stop at 2wks?
Would love to hear how others are getting on with the progesterone. Thanks ladies.
