A member asked:
What is the normal range for the amount of time it takes to start a period after your last progesterone pill?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
3-10 days: With adequate estrogen effect & at least 7 days of Progesterone use, you should see a withdrawal bleed within 3-10 days. If not, you need to discuss this with your doc. To prevent hyperplasia, you may need a longer course (10 days). For synchronizing your lining, you may need a higher dose and/or estrogen supplementation.
