Hey girls,
I know many of us are on progesterone, and it can be EVIL- I had these weird things going on and I could swear they were pregnancy related. Let's start a list of all the symptoms we get from progesterone, so that we don't fool ourselves month after month- maybe it can help people new to taking it as well.
Here are my side effects- EXHAUSTED, twinges in abdomen, MOODY, (I take mine vaginally, so a little sore there), Vaginal Dryness, Lack of libido.
Also in your post, tell us how you take it (oral, vaginal, shot, etc.) and what kind you are on.

I am exhausted, sore boobs, twinges in abdomen, very emotional and moody. VERY.
I take it oral.
For this cycle, I started using Crinone 8% Progesterone Gel. I like it much better than the vaginal capsules I used to use. Less side effects, only once a day, and easy to administer.
