Anyone Put On Progesterone Gel While Pregnant?



Recommended Posts

Since I've had two previous miscarriages my doc put me on vaginal progesterone gel.

So far so good but there is a serious amount of possible side effects that come with it some even for the baby!! Which has me a little nervous. Was wondering if anyone else has used this and what your experiance with it was.

After my daughter had 2 miscarriages

She was put on it. Now I have 3 beautiful grandkids 12,8& 4. The 12yo has Cerebral palsy, but nothing to do with progesterone. She was born at 23wks .

Her brother & sister, no problems all very smart 8yo is in 2nd grade & reads at 5th grade level. No medical problems.

Try not to worry! You're in my T&Ps!

I took progesterone pills when I was pregnant with my 2 year old. We're both happy and healthy. I'm not sure about the differences between the pill and the gel, but the pill saved my boy.

I took the vaginal progesterone with no side effects. No side effect was too big to deter me from having a child of my own. I had to take it every time IVF was done which was 4 times. Finally the 4th time worked. The progesterone really does help!

I'm takin it faithfully believe me! I don't think I could handle another miscarriage. Side effect just had me super nervous.

But with all meds they must include all possibilities regaurdless off how small the chances of it occuring are.

You're right about everything having along list if side effects. I always laugh at TV ads when the start listing them.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
