Infertility

Progesterone stopped when does AF start

So I stopped taking progesterone on the day I was due to get my AF. I stopped because that morning and the night before I had spotting. I haven't had any since I stopped. I took a pregnancy test on Friday and it was negative didn't do a beta. How long does it take for AF to start?

Re: Progesterone stopped when does AF start

  • What's your whole story? If you are doing some form of ART you could still be in the game. Spotting could be implantation!

    That said, when I stopped taking progesterone after my first failed IVF, AF showed up about two to three days later.

  • It can be 2-7days depending (on rare occasions longer than that). I second pp. what type of ART are you on, what day of your cycle did you test/ stop progesterone, and did your RE tell you to stop the progesterone based in the bfn?
  • I did an iui on Black Friday my AF was due on 12/11 called dr because I stopped and the negative pregnancy test. They told me to stop progesterone and call when it's full flow. I did the follistim injections this was my first cycle with the injectables. I did three other iuis on clomid and got my AF on the 28th day of my cycle like always. So now I just want to make sure everything is okay I guess
  • My period started even while I was taking progesterone suppositories.  I think it's just different for everyone.

    Me: 34, DH: 38 ~ TTC since 2014
    IUI #1-3 (Nov 2015, Feb 2016, May 2016) = BFNs
    IVF ER (July 2016) = 7 PGS normal embryos
    FET #1 (Sept 2016) = BFP! DD born 5/30/17
    FET #2 (April 2019) = BFN
    FET #3 (July 2019) = BFP! DS born 3/27/20
  • Mine started about four days later. Maybe TMI, but make sure you get all the excess progesterone out because it can delay the period start date.
