A member asked:

Took prometrium (micronized progesterone) to start my cycle but it never started should i take it again?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Prometrium (micronized progesterone): If you don't have a period after taking prometrium, (micronized progesterone) possibly you are also lacking sufficient estrogen to prime the uterus. I think that you should schedule a gyn vist and try using estrogen first, and then using the promedriu.
