How do you know if you have low progesterone?

2 replies

Brown spotting for a week before my period starts, so the doctor thinks I have a hormonal imbalance but says that there are mixed reviews that prescribing progesterone for it is beneficial when TTC.

Ahh good to know. Thank you

Hey I’m in the same position, always spotting from day 21 until I start my period. Sometimes I find it difficult to distinguish between them. But I’m now on progesterone pessaries for 3 months. The consultant says there’s no guarantee it’ll work, but I feel like at least I’m trying something which will either help or I can rule it out. Other than that I’m just on prepregnancy / trying to conceive vitamins.

Thanks for replying, hopefully they work for you. Let me know how you get on x

I’m half way through my second cycle on these meds and will start them again on Thursday. But even after the first week of using them I noticed I had minimal spotting and a more obvious period. Whilst it may not be enough help for us to get pregnant, I do feel like they made a difference

Look into Proov Balancing Oil. I’ve only used it for one cycle (12 days before) my period & it seemed to reduce the spotting before I had my period.

They don’t do it in the UK 😩
