I have to take this medication at night so I do not get sick or loopy, it seems to be working because prior to starting this medication I had very irregular periods and no ovulation. Since taking it I have had regular cycles with ovulation occuring every month. I take 400mg cycle days 15-28

I take this medication cycle days 1528 and it is 400mg a day. I have to take it right before going to bed because it makes me feel sick and loopy if not. The other down side is that it is expensive. It does also make me emotional. It seems to be working though I have ovulated every month since taking it. I also had very irregular periods prior to taking it and they are now like clock work.
suppositories... yeah, fun...

Yes synthetic..quit, went to progesterone cream. Had one "period" so far!
Working / Worked
Since the Metformin doesnt seem to be working as we had hoped every few months I take Progesterone for about 10 days to induce a withdrawal bleed. Usually I see AF within a week after taking the last pill but only a couple times has she returned the next month on her own.

It was the reason I had 4 miscarriages and was able to hold and deliver one live son.
This is what I take to get a period because I can't get one on my own.
