progesterone post ovulation

I'm taking prometrium (200mg) once a day at bedtime post ovulation.  I should be 9 or 10 DPO.  I've been taking it 9 days. I know that taking this can cause pregnancy symptoms, but my question is:  does it build up and intensify as you take it day after day.  Ex:  my breasts are larger but the tenderness has been very mild, then disappeared, until last night.  They were very sore on the sides mostly last night, but then this mornng they are tender all over.  I've had bits of feeling a  little queazy, but this morning I've had to lay on the sofa bc I'm so nauseaus.  I actulaly feel it so bad I keep thinking I'm going to hurl at any moment.

Would this be bc the prometrium has built up in my system so the side effects are intensifiying?  The nausea is what's really bad and I'm wondering if I'm getting sick or if this is just the pills.  thanks

thanks.  I was thinking back and i think the first 2 days I took it it did make me feel a bit ill (I think I posted about it back then) but then it was like I wasn't even taking anything...felt just fine.  Who knows.  But I still feel like yuck.

I never had any side effects from it at all.  It effects some people differently.  Good luck

Was just writing on my journal and realized that even wehn I was pregnant last month and was taking prometrium 200 mg. 2X a day, I was never ever this nauseaus.  So I think I'm just getting really sick.
