I am on prometrium now. I started taking it because I have LPD/low p from poor egg quality. I take it the everyday( preferably in the morning) starting from the day after either TI or IUI until 14dpo. I then test for pregnancy and if negative I stop the prometrium and AF shows about 2 days later. It stops my period from starting on it's own. I am on 200mg a day.

What's your plan? I still can't decide if I'm going to ask for b/w or a script. Maybe I'll see what he says first and then ask.

why did you start it? I have an irregular LP where I will spot heavily on and off until AF comes. This helps sustain things so if implantation occurs, it sticks!
what days did you take it? From day 14 - 28
what was your dosage? 200mg oral. I take it at night because it makes me really sleepy.
I have an LPD. I started Prometrium with my medicated IUI's. My progesterone was much lower than they wanted to see with Clomid. I also needed them during my pregnancy (which ended in m/c, not progesterone-related).
I start them at 3dpo. My first IUI, I didn't start them until 7dpo; now my RE goes ahead with them from the beginning.
I took 200mg vaginally with my first IUI, and 400mg with my second.

I have LPD and low P. The RE didn't mention Prometrium yet. Is it typical to wait to see how Clomid affects P before starting Prometrium? I feel like I should be asking about this when AF comes.
