Period pains with Progynova

Hi guys,

I am doing a modified FET, with no down regulation. I’m taking 3 Progynova tablets per day (currently day 8) and I keep getting period like pains. Is this normal? I’m stressing myself out so much on this worrying if it’s normal or not!

The Consultant mentioned to me last week that there is a chance these tablets can grow follicles, (which of course we don’t want to happen) but if it does the cycle will be cancelled again. ( last FET cancelled due to failed down regulation)

Got myself convinced that this is what’s happening in there! Scan tomorrow thank goodness as I’m driving myself round the bend!

Anybody had anything similar?

Ps hope everyone is well 💖

I had this on my prep for my last frozen transfer and all was fine with me. I was on a bit of a higher dose at 4x2mg but they did settle down eventually. It is so nerve rackning as we just associate period pains with bad stuff. I spoke to another girl who has the same so hopefully its just plumping up nicely for you! Good luck for scan tomorrow.xx

I definitely had period pain with progynova on a recent FET! Last time I downregulated, but I think next time I’ll be doing same / similar to you as I can’t handle the buserelin! Good luck ✨🌟 wishing you a lovely thick lining and no follicles! xx
