Doc has put me on progesterone support because of some spotting in early weeks and i had a loss before this. Im really tense and just want to know does it really help hold the pregnancy? Anyone who went through similar pls share.
My doctor put me on progesterone support for the first trimester, so she strictly told me to avoid heavy workouts. I was only allowed mild walking once she gave the green light. If you are on progesterone, make sure you ask your gynac before doing any yoga or exercise.
I panicked so much when my doctor prescribed progesterone support in my first trimester because of some spotting. But it is very common and actually helps strengthen the uterine lining to support the baby. It worked perfectly for me, so please don't worry.
Progesterone is basically the hormone that maintains the pregnancy, so if your levels are low or there's spotting, doctors prescribe it. It’s a very standard support therapy. Just take it exactly how your gynac advised and don't skip doses.
According to my pregnancy tracker app, progesterone is crucial for keeping the uterine lining thick and healthy for the baby. If your doctor has prescribed it, it’s to give your body that extra support. Just track your symptoms on an app to see if they're normal.
I am currently 10 weeks pregnant and my doctor put me on progesterone too. My friend said it's to keep the pregnancy safe, but does it have any side effects like extra bloating? I feel super gassy after taking it.
