progestrone side effects hell

CandKmomma

It makes me feel SO tired and dizzy!  I an't wait to be done with it!  On my days off I take it then nap, on the days I work I suffer.  Thank God I only work for 3 more weeks.  I'm over it.

Oh no. I start taking it on Friday. Can you take it at night?

I take it orally 200 mg twice a day.  I asked if I could take both at night and the Dr said I could but he'd rather I space it out.

are the oral pills the yellow ones with SV2 on them? if so, see if you can do them vaginally instead of oral. i've been on prometrium vaginally more cycles than i can recall, but i don't ever have any side effects with the vag. suppositories (other than the nasty discharge, but i'll take that over dizziness!)

Yep, can't keep my eyes open half the time.  I'm on the progesterone gel suppository and exhausted!  I nap on weekends but not during the week when I'm at work.  I brought a pillow to keep in my car to try to take a nap in my car on my lunch hour but haven't had the guts to actually use it yet.  I haven't told anyone at work yet and just know that will get the rumor mill going full swing.
