Question

Anyone else taking Prometrium/Progesterone?

My doctor has me on prometrium/progesterone supplements of 200mg twice a day. I started this 2dpo.

I am now 6 dpo and practically falling asleep at my desk at work.

I just want to know what other's have experienced with this.

I took prometrium last month too. I rememberbeing sleepy, but not THIS bad. Not sure what the cause.

Could this be a side effect of the hormone treatment, or is it possibly a very early pregnancy symptom?

It can be a symptom of either/both. Progesterone is part of what makes us tired in early pregnancy, so it makes sense that taking it would make us sleepy. 6dpo is very early to feel tired from pregnancy. I'm sure it happens sometimes, though. I'm 17dpo with a confirmed pregnancy, and my tiredness didn't start until about 11dpo. I am taking 100mg Progestin twice a day vaginally and have been since cd14.
