Progesterone post medicated FET

I'd like to ask all the ladies who conceived after a HRT/medicated FET, how much progesterone pessaries were you on?

I'm on 4 x 200mg vaginal capsules so 800mg/day.

Wonder if anyone is/was on a lower dosage.

Just thinking about reducing to 3 x /day (600mg) having seen the patients' leaflet for Utrogestan, which advises 200mg x 3/day.

I was 3 x 200mg utrogestan and 2 lubion injections a day from my FET. Was able to reduce the lubion to one a day quite quickly. I was told to taper off the utrogestan over a week from around 10 weeks, but I started spotting and bleeding and progesterone was the only thing that stopped it so my hospital consultant said it was fine to keep taking it. I didn't seem to need much at all though by that stage and I ended up on about 1 utrogestan a day for the rest of the pregnancy.

I was on Cyclogest pessaries 400mg 3 times per day plus a daily prontogest injection x I would personally only reduce or change anything if your consultant advises it xx

Congratulations x

I’m on x2 400mg cyclogest and 1ml lubion daily! Been told I need to take it up to 12 weeks 😊 I would definitely stick with your clinics recommendations though!
