Question 1

My wife is about 8 weeks into her pregnancy, and her gynecologist has prescribed Strone 200 for vaginal use. The thing is, shes having a tough time inserting the soft gel vaginally. We're wondering if she could take it orally instead? Or maybe there's another progesterone tablet out there that's suitable for oral intake?

Accepted Answer

Strone 200, a natural micronized progesterone, is typically administered vaginally, but if your wife experiences difficulties, consult her gynecologist about alternative options, such as oral progesterone supplements like Duphaston (dydrogesterone) or Naturogest (micronized progesterone), but do not switch or take any medication without consulting

Question 5

I'm a bit confused about how periods and ovulation are connected. Is it possible to have a period without ovulating? And if I do ovulate, does that mean I'll definitely get my period about 15 days after? I'm just trying to understand how it all works.

Accepted Answer

Yes, it is possible to have a menstrual period without ovulation. This is known as an anovulatory cycle. Yes, typically after ovulation, a menstrual period occurs around 14 days later. This is known as the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. If fertilization does not occur, the uterine lining sheds, resulting in menstruation. If you are looking for a medication to regulate your menstrual cycle, you can consider using oral contraceptive pills such as Yaz or Yasmin.

Question 6

I'm really confused right now. My pregnancy test came back negative after doing IUI, but I still haven't gotten my period. Should I stop taking progesterone, or is there something else I should consider?

Accepted Answer

If your pregnancy test is negative after IUI and your periods have not started, it is safe to stop taking progesterone. Progesterone is usually prescribed to support early pregnancy, so if you are not pregnant, there is no need to continue taking it.
