Bloating while on Progesterone

Has anyone else experienced bloating while on Progesterone?

Today is my 7th day (out of 10) taking the Progesterone. Every day the effects seem to be worse. I am having worse nausea, headaches and bloating than I ever had while pregnant. My stomach had gone down completely after the miscarriage, and now it looks just as big (if not bigger) than before.

For all those that haven't taken Progesterone before:
It stops bleeding by tricking your body into thinking it is pregnant. When you stop the medication, 2-4 days later you get a period.

It is getting hard not to hope I am pregnant. (even though I know the chances are pretty slim)

Has anyone else experienced this???

I have had varying degrees of headache all day since I started too. Sometimes it is really bad. How much is your dosage?
