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.

I took it from
through 12 weeks and had very mild nausea. I think there are too many variables, but I have heard it can make symptoms worse.For the record, I took it vaginally, and just before bed, both of which are supposedly better for symptoms.
-
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!
eta: I took it orally, I think 100 mg, but not sure.

@Mrs.Someone: same!

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.
-
I just checked, and mine was 200 mg
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
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.
I think it can help amplify what's already there if that makes sense.
-
I had bad morning sickness before starting progesterone, so maybe it's just amplifying it.
-
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)
-
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.

It's seems like everyone took theirs early in pregnancy.. Anyone take starting 2nd trimester through birth?
through 12 weeks and had very mild nausea. I think there are too many variables, but I have heard it can make symptoms worse.Reply
