TTC after 35

IUI...AF and prometrium

Does anyone have experience with prometrium after IUI.....does it delay AF? I did see a post that mentioned something about waiting until the preg. test and then obviously I would be told at that point to stop the prometrium and estrace.....then AF will show a few days after......yes?

I did not know this...I thought AF would just show up as rudely as it always has for the past 2.5 years of TTC.

Re: IUI...AF and prometrium

  • I haven't had IUI but I have been on Prometrium and I take it until AF shows up...if I'm not having b/w done that month.  If I'm having b/w done then I stop after the results.  However, it absolutely delays my cycle and since starting it my completely clock-work-like cycle is totally messed up.

  • I so do not want to hear that Prometium will delay my cycle. I cannot bear the thought of AF not showing AND getting a BFN.

    This is my first month on Prometrium. AF is due Saturday...so I will come back and let you all know.

  • Guess we will all know this answer soon. I will be stopping the prometrium on Friday if the beta is negative and will wait for AF then.. My LP is already like 16 days so if it is any longer, that will be really annoying. But this whole process is annoying so I wouldn't expect anything different.
