Seriously, they should not make those things pink, especially since they are usually used for pregnant women who will freak out thinking it is bleeding. </p> <p>Yes, put as far up as you can! It sucks, but its going to help. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prometrium-question#post-1213349 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 11:58:51 +0000 justdarling 1213349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Happygal: yes, near the cervix. My doctor said to try to get it as close to the cervix as possible. She said that the best way to insert it was to put it on the tip of your finger and push it up there. Ignoring the symptoms is the best thing. It really drove me crazy for a few cycles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prometrium-question#post-1213302 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 11:37:53 +0000 Happygal 1213302@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lovelyplum: I bought panty liners for the first time since I was a teen! Not fun, but better than the alternative. </p> <p>@justdarling: Did you place it near your cervix? Thank you for the heads up on symptoms--I'm basically going to ignore any possible symptom this time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prometrium-question#post-1213284 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 11:28:12 +0000 justdarling 1213284@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been on it a lot while TTC and now am on it through 12 weeks of pregnancy. Mine were also yellow pills and I did have yellow leakage. I agree that the pink is probably from the pills. My doctor told me to try to get it as far up as possible. </p> <p>I noticed that when I was on it, I got pregnancy symptoms - which was not fun when the cycle failed. I would often be nauseous and get sore boobs. It really played tricks with my mind because I would convince myself that the cycle worked only to get a BFN. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prometrium-question#post-1213117 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 10:33:54 +0000 LovelyPlum 1213117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took it twice a day for 12 weeks, but mine were in yellow capsules, not pink ones. The yellow capsules made me have tons of yellow discharge, so I wouldn't be super surprised if the pink ones did that too (though I don't know). Panty liners were my best friend, especially for the morning ones.</p> <p>One thing I will say: I had no side effects really, other than that they made my morning sickness lots worse. I've heard that if you take it vaginally, the side effects are supposed to be much less.</p> <p>Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/prometrium-question#post-1213103 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 10:30:45 +0000 Happygal 1213103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm hoping to hear from those who've taken Prometrium. I started this AM and will be taking it twice a day.</p> <p>I was surprised when I noticed a light pink discharge today. I'm assuming it's the dye from the pink pill, but wonder if it's causing spotting. Has anyone else dealt with this? I was also unsure just how far up to place it. And why did they make it look like a little gumball? Any other tips? I feel like it's irritating things and making me slightly nauseous already, but I'm pretty sure that's truthfully psychosomatic. </p>
