Prometrium or natural progesterone treatment
Has anyone tried Prometrium or natural progesterone treatment, as opposed to synthetic progestin (mini pill) treatment?
I have been using progestin treatment, in the form of norethindrone mini pill, for the past month and a half and have had some significant side effects (weight gain, bloating, brain fog, depression, fatigue, acne). I've read a bit about natural progesterone v progestin and am curious about trying the natural form over synthetic.
This is an interesting question. I’ve never heard much about natural progesterone treatment. I’m interested to hear what others think. But I definitely couldn’t tolerate the progestin-only pill. It was the worst for me terms of side effects when I tried hormonal birth control. I hope you find some answers! - Keri (endometriosis.net team member) 
- Hi there! I just wanted to check in on how you have been doing! How has your progestin treatment been going? Hoping the side effects have subsided and you are doing well <3 -Kimberli (advocate)
