Pregnant after a Loss

Is anyone taking prometrium?

My doctor prescribed prometrium to assist with sustaining the pregancy.  Could you share your experiences using prometrium?  Do you think it has helped you with sustaining your pregnancy thus far?  Are you having any side effects?

  • I am taking prometrium. So far I notice that I get dizzy and light headed a little while after I take it, which usually only lasts for about a half hour. I've been really exhausted, but I'm not sure if that's just being pregnant or the prometrium enhancing that.

  • I was prescribed prometrium and was told to stay on it until after week 30... my doctor says long term is also aids in preventing late losses.  I haven't had any problems from it.... BUT my doctor insisted I take it at bedtime because it makes most people sleepy.  I WAS taking it in the a.m. and I noticed that I had less m/s once I switched to night....

  • I took it until 14 weeks and I definitely think it helped after having 3 early losses. No real negatives to it other than cost for me.
  • i have been on prometrium since i found out i was pregnant.  i'm thinking at my appointment tomorrow i might get to start weening off of it.  my main side effect has been sleepiness, but i'm already sleepy from just being pregnant.  other than that nothing has really been an issue
