I started taking vaginal suppositories (100 mg 2x a day) of progesterone yesterday and I?m wondering how soon the side effects can appear. As of now I?ve only taken 3 doses but I swear I?m more hungry and tired ? is this just in my mind or can it really be the progesterone? TIA for your help!

I was so tired after taking 2 doses of progesterone (200mg twice a day) that I called my nurse. She suggested cutting back to 1 a day orally. Me being concerned about a possible baby stuck out the 2 times a day vaginally. I wasn't as tired as I first was at the beginning, but I didn't have any trouble falling asleep at night!
Call your doctor and see if they suggest you cutting back your dosage or taking them orally instead.
