Trouble TTC

Progesterone Side Effects

Hi Ladies...so just want to make sure this is not all in my head or that I am the only one with these side effects. We just completed the 2 weeks of injections and I am on day 2 of the Progesterone (i know, if I am already complaining on day 2...) are these normal?!

Sorry now if tmi... 

sore breasts, feel like my insides are going to pop they feel so swollen, pressure down below, constipated, gassy (my dh is loving this one...not :) ), giggly one minute then annoyed the next, tired...

my injection site from the hcg is still sore too...so that is adding to my discomfort...this is going to be a long 2 weeks!

 please let me know if you have had these symptoms and please tell me it gets better :( (wishful thinking, i know)

Thanks and hope everyone has a nice holiday tomorrow 

Re: Progesterone Side Effects

  • Yes, all of those symptoms are normal on Progesterone.  I think we've all had some of them at some point.  GL this cycle!

  • I just had the "giggly one minute, annoyed the next".  As for the gassy, I get that with Metformin so I didn't notice any increase.  I didn't take injects though, I'm just on pill form 200 mg.
