Hi !!

Recently starting cycling micronised progesterone for my PCOS. Irregular periods and short luteal phase.

My GP prescribed it for , I’m just a little confused on when to take it.
I was getting regular periods but haven’t been for a few months.
I started 14 days after my period would of been due. ( only had spotting)

I’m on my second cycle of it and 14 days on and 14 off with only spotting instead of a period.

Do I continue 14 days on and off ? Or does spotting count as a period?

Any advice or info would be amazing

Thanks
Brooke

Hello,
I am sorry to invade your post. I am in the progesterone cyclical therapy since September last year. I am also taking Spironolactone to decrease the androgens. Bad thing is my cycle is shorter (maybe because the Spiro?) and also I am having very bad cramps. I have ever experienced something like that. Somebody else feeling the same? Anyone has an idea what is going on?
