  • I took it for several cycles, but never experienced any weight gain like you are referring to...sorry :)  The only side effect was the horrible discharge.

  • I've taken endometrin twice.  The first time was my c/p m/c and yes I gained five pounds but honestly I thought it was because of first when I was pregnant my symptoms were wanting to eat everything in sight those first few days.  Then when I started miscarrying I ate my feelings. And was not checking the scale.  Next thing I know after those two weeks (last week of the 2ww and week of dealing with the c/p) I was up 5lbs.
     
    The second time I was on it was in May and at that time I was in the middle of a weight loss challenge group trying to lose weight so I was exercising and tracking calories on myfitnesspal ap and losing about a pound a week.  

    Because of this I don't think the med was a factor for me.  But bloating is common on all progesterone supps so if it's just that your clothes feel tight - that is normal even on oral progesterone pills that I've been on for many many cycles.  But remember everyone is different.  I've heard several IF ladies that gain weight during treatment cycles.  But for me that was the only cycle out of five treatment cycles that I gained weight.

  • Thank you ladies! Not sure what it is then. Hopefully it is just bloating but the scale is definitely showing weight gain. Time to crack down on my diet! :o)
