Prometrium?

waited40

Hi everyone,
I've been reading online that prometrium delays your AF, but the nurse I am working with said it doesnt?:shock: Does anyone have any experience with taking prometrium? I am taking it twice a day vaginally - It's not too bad - Not sure why I was not put on suppositories instead but I hear those can get much messier...

A woman’s luteal phase is typically 12-14 days, but mine was as short as 9-10 days which indicated that my progesterone was dropping off too quickly. I was put on 200mg progesterone suppositories (yes, they can be messy) and would not start my AF until I stopped them following a negative pregnancy test. After that, AF typically comes 1-2 days later.

Thanks for this info mrccjf. I did end up getting AF two days after my beta test What a let down.
