Progesterone cream

I've heard (and read) about progesterone cream helping to maintain pregnancy, and sometimes help with a short luteal phase. Have any of you tried it? I have an appt on Wednesday and I'll ask the doc her feelings on it, but I was wondering if you ladies had any firsthand experience. . .

Re: Progesterone cream

  • I have a friend that used it. It happened to be the cycle she got pregnant after a year+ of trying. She wanted to try something "natural" before moving on to medicated cycles with her doctor. She thinks its what helped her get pregnant, but I guess that's hard to prove.
