Anyone take starting 2nd trimester through birth? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-side-effects-from-progesterone#post-1708801 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 08:20:49 +0000 pui 1708801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started progesterone supplements 5 weeks in to my pregnancy and stopped at 12 weeks. My symptoms did get worse around 7-8 weeks, but that could have just been the pregnancy itself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-side-effects-from-progesterone#post-1708783 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 08:14:41 +0000 charmed 1708783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been taking it since 3dpo - 200mg at night. It's my first pregnancy so I don't have anything to compare, but my symptoms have been very mild. (a little bit of nausea at 6-8 weeks, fatigue, food aversions) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-side-effects-from-progesterone#post-1708688 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 06:22:38 +0000 littlek 1708688@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had bad morning sickness before starting progesterone, so maybe it's just amplifying it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-side-effects-from-progesterone#post-1708110 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 18:04:15 +0000 swedishfish 1708110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took PIO injections from egg retrieval to transfer and then Endometrin inserts 3x/day from transfer to...10 weeks or so with R. I had horrible morning sickness from 6ish weeks to 14 weeks. </p> <p>I've been on PIO injections much longer this time as well as Endometrin and I'm just exhausted all the time. I haven't had morning sickness yet but my progesterone levels have been low. </p> <p>I think it can help amplify what's already there if that makes sense. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-side-effects-from-progesterone#post-1708067 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 17:26:23 +0000 LovelyPlum 1708067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had horrible nausea until 18 weeks, and I took 200 mg twice a day.vaginally until 13 weeks. I guess I have no real way of knowing whether the progesterone made it worse or not. I was also completely exhausted, but again, no way of telling why. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-side-effects-from-progesterone#post-1708062 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 17:23:18 +0000 Tidybee 1708062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm taking 200mg 3/day at 7 weeks. My effects are complete and utter exhaustion to the point of being dizzy about 90 minutes after I take the pill. I'm not having any other nausea or symptoms. The doctor did say to expect some nausea from it but I just haven't had any. My hcg is also very low so I attribute my lack of symptoms to that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-side-effects-from-progesterone#post-1708051 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 17:16:44 +0000 LAZB 1708051@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just checked, and mine was 200 mg </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-side-effects-from-progesterone#post-1708046 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 17:13:40 +0000 Snowdrop 1708046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have been taking t since 4dpo (400mg at night) it's hard to say as I've never been pregnant without it but even though I now have proper M/S at 7+5 I had been feeling queasy for a long time, since about 10/11 dpo, at the time I did attribute it to the progesterone but I suppose it is hard to tell. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-side-effects-from-progesterone#post-1708038 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 17:07:05 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1708038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.Someone: same! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-side-effects-from-progesterone#post-1707980 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 16:28:54 +0000 LAZB 1707980@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took it from 3dpo-12 weeks, and had very little symptoms. If it did amplify anything, then I probably would have had no symptoms at all without it!</p> <p>eta: I took it orally, I think 100 mg, but not sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-side-effects-from-progesterone#post-1707976 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 16:26:02 +0000 Mrs.Someone 1707976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took it from :bfp: through 12 weeks and had very mild nausea. I think there are too many variables, but I have heard it can make symptoms worse.</p> <p>For the record, I took it vaginally, and just before bed, both of which are supposedly better for symptoms. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-side-effects-from-progesterone#post-1707950 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 16:13:29 +0000 littlek 1707950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just started progesterone, 200 mg a night and it seems to be intensifying my pregnancy symptoms (naseau, exhaustion, etc). Did anyone else have this? I just started at 15 weeks and I will be taking it until I have the baby. </p>
