Pessaries

[Dreamingofbaby]

Hey just wondered how people got on with taking the cyclogest pessaries? Unsure if is them but am very exhausted and abit dizzy at times so you think that could be due to starting them? Only on day 2 of them so far 😕 any input be much appreciated 😊

Hi Cloecs227. All down to it containing progesterone, a hormone produced by the pituitary gland in the brain, so often causes tiredness and sometimes headaches. Hopefully it will ease off as you get used to them. Good luck! Diane

I'm currently on these too. I haven't found dizziness or tiredness an issue but I do have what feels like AF cramps. Have you had this too? Xx

Little bit of af pain for sure but put that to the egg collection and pain is going more now for me which is good. I don't know what relates to what these days thou tbh 😏 n tbh my tiredness could be getting of the op n having a bit of ohss which I think has settled a bit too phew. Going to the loo is painful still though 😕 oh well if it means good results bring it on a 🤔
