Krussell19 217 Posted September 15, 2012 Since I've had two previous miscarriages my doc put me on vaginal progesterone gel. So far so good but there is a serious amount of possible side effects that come with it some even for the baby!! Which has me a little nervous. Was wondering if anyone else has used this and what your experiance with it was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maddysgram 6,159 Posted September 15, 2012 After my daughter had 2 miscarriages She was put on it. Now I have 3 beautiful grandkids 12,8& 4. The 12yo has Cerebral palsy, but nothing to do with progesterone. She was born at 23wks . Her brother & sister, no problems all very smart 8yo is in 2nd grade & reads at 5th grade level. No medical problems. Try not to worry! You're in my T&Ps! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LessToLove902 41 Posted September 16, 2012 I took progesterone pills when I was pregnant with my 2 year old. We're both happy and healthy. I'm not sure about the differences between the pill and the gel, but the pill saved my boy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
otters38 31 Posted September 16, 2012 I took the vaginal progesterone with no side effects. No side effect was too big to deter me from having a child of my own. I had to take it every time IVF was done which was 4 times. Finally the 4th time worked. The progesterone really does help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krussell19 217 Posted September 16, 2012 I'm takin it faithfully believe me! I don't think I could handle another miscarriage. Side effect just had me super nervous. But with all meds they must include all possibilities regaurdless off how small the chances of it occuring are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I always laugh at TV ads when the start listing them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
