Prometrium

[misscat212]

I have always had regular periods, which stopeed in January. I finally got my period in April and it is lat agan. I was on metformin to get my periods going, but it upset my stopmach. My dr. just put me on Prometrium 200mg at bedtime with hope to get my period. Has anyone taken this for similar reason and what was your outcome? We are trying to get pregnant.

I have been on provera twice. Once after I had no period for a full year, I took the pills and got AF within 2 days. The second time was a couple months ago and AF came a week after I finished the pills. From what I have been told it is the drop in progesterone that causes AF to come, so it will depend on how quickly the med leaves your system. Good luck!

Hi, I have similiar issue with my period.  I'm 33 yrs old.  Always used to be regular.. then after I stopped breast feeding my son nothing.  BC usually works and brings on my cycle but then it disappears if I stop taking it.  

RE put me on prometrium 200mg for 5 days.  It just finished my last pill on Sat, so now a waiting game.  A friend took prometrium for 5 days and had her period 4 days after she took her last pill.  Heard it can take up to a week?  

This is only my 2nd month with RE and 1st time I'm taking any type of meds besides BC.  Then RE said she's going to put me on Estrace one my cycle comes?  I'm hoping for the best?   We also are trying to get pregnant.  Isn't so frustrating!

Good Luck.
