I went to the doctor on Thursday (14th) he gave me a test it showed - but I was not due to start until today the (18th) he put me on some medicine he said would make me start called Prometrium which I have not started and he said if I haven't started by Friday the (22nd) to go back in for another blood test it is very hard to not get your hopes up when you think your doctor knows something. Has anyone ever been in this situation??? He also told me that this medicine will make me feel pregnant which I do!!!! SO I JUST DON'T KNOW!!!!!!!

Prometrium is just a hormone that is a form of progesterone. I was on it right after I gave birth to ds to solve a post-partum depression issue. From what I understand (someone correct me if I'm wrong), it should not be harmful if you are pregnant, since it replicates that natural hormone in pregnancy. But that's why your doctor said you might feel pregnant even if you aren't. But, on the other side of the coin, it will not make you have af if you are indeed pregnant.

Good luck, and keep us posted.
