Question

has anyone taken progesterone/prometrium 200mg to get withdrawal bleed?

I was just prescribed progesterone/prometrium dose 200mg to take orally twice a day for 10 days to start my period. Has anyone taken this? If so, did you get withdrawal bleed shortly after?

I was doing some research since I've never taken it and seen some women did not get their period or only spotted. I want to make sure it works for the most part. Im anxious to start ttc after my miscarriage early last month.

I have taken it several times to induce a cycle. I have taken it in different strengths, sometimes a higher dose for 5 days or a lower dose for 10 days. Usually when I took it for 10 days I started spotting before I even finished all the pills (around days 7-9) but sometimes it would take a couple days after stopping. It's usually recommended that if you don't get a period within a week of stopping the pills to call your ob but I never had that happen.

I don't remember the dose, but my doctor gave me this after not having a period for 3 months. It only took 2 days to get a period started and unfortunately it somehow affected my mother and little sister who I was visiting.
