Doc put me on progesterone gel during my cycle and now im feeling sore breasts and thoda nausea. Cant tell if its actual pregnancy or just the gel playing tricks on me. Anyone been through this confusion?
I felt so confused when I was using that gel because every single symptom felt like a positive sign. It was quite an emotional rollercoaster for me until I did the actual test.
My doctor explained that progesterone is the same hormone that causes early pregnancy symptoms. So when you use the gel, it's very common to feel bloated, tired, or have sore breasts even if you aren't pregnant yet.
Haha, yes! Progesterone is basically the drama queen hormone. It will make you feel fully pregnant with all the bloating and soreness, so don't trust the symptoms alone.
When I was staying at my parents' house, my mom reminded me that hormones can play tricks on the body. Progesterone gel definitely mimics pregnancy feelings, so don't worry too much about it.
