Confused about progesterone??
by Janessa
(North Dakota)
I am taking progesterone cream to help my heavy periods, 400 mg per day from day 14 on. I recently upped my dose to 400 since after searching on here I realized that what I was taking wasn't enough. So on day 14 I took my progesterone and I started getting very very light spotting, light brown. Then on day 20, I saw pink when I wiped, and now it is day 21 and I'm on a light period. I remember 2 months ago my period came early and it was light but got heavier when I took the progesterone and I was flooding like crazy, but I stopped and the period lightened a lot, then disappeared in 3 days. I'm not sure if I should stop taking the cream now to avoid getting a heavy period. Why did progesterone bring on a period when I started it/upped my dose a lot? I'm not sure what is causing this, I read here that women taking 400 mg get their bleeding stopped, not started. I'm looking into other supplements like CDG and NAC, will those fix my problem? Thanks a ton.
