You should check with your doctor first, but it can be used to suppress ovulation so that your ovaries have a chance to heal up the little cysts while your hormones get balanced. After years of anovulation I was in dire need of the stuff anyway, and it may have accelerated the healing a bit for me.


Just had my hormone checked Monday and waiting for the results. Suspect low progesterone. I should bc I was during last 2 prenancies, which contributed to years of infertility. I had to take progestin the first 14 weeks of both pregnancies to maintain them. Now, looking at it as the cause of hypothyroid type symptoms such as head hair loss, no libido, slow weight loss, sleep disturbances, and many, many others small annoying things. I hope progesterone cream is the answer and I had thought of this earlier, like 1 1/2 years ago.
