My gynac put me on progesterone after my first scan and I forgot to ask her properly why. Now im a bit curious matlab what does it actually do? anyone else was given this in early pregnancy?
I am currently in my 4th month and still taking progesterone gel. My doctor said it keeps the cervix strong and prevents early labor. Are any of you also taking it till the late second trimester?
My doctor prescribed progesterone in my first trimester because of some light spotting, and my mom made sure I took it on time every day. It basically helps support the baby and keep the pregnancy safe, so please follow your doctor's advice.
Yaar, actually it is like a protective shield for the baby! It stops the uterus from contracting too early. If your doctor has recommended it, please take it on time, don't worry.
I had to take progesterone tablets because of mild cramps. My MIL was worried about so many medicines, but the doctor explained it's just a hormone to support the baby, so we strictly followed the prescription.
With my PCOS history, my progesterone levels were naturally low, so my doctor put me on supplements immediately. It really helps secure the pregnancy in those fragile early weeks, so trust your doctor on this.
I was prescribed progesterone support early on, and later developed gestational diabetes. Progesterone is crucial for holding the pregnancy, so definitely take it as prescribed by your doctor and don't skip it.
