breastfeeding and prometrium

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 

has anyone here taken prometrium while bf?  dd4 is 14 mos, nurses on demand about 8 times+ per day and takes solids well.  i'm wanting to clw, and i did have some issues back around the 3-4 month mark after a surgery.  millie was a preemie and i pumped for 6 wks before getting her to the breast, so loosing my supply now would be heartbreaking.  i need to take it to help regulate my periods as i've been having 10+ days of spotting per month and random bleeding.  i read on hales that prometrium is safe, but it can reduce supply if taken shortly after delivery but no word on taking it after bf is well established.  any help is appreciate!  thank you!

I took prometrium during the 2WW of 4 cycles this summer, and I did not notice that it caused any problems with my supply. I was doing 400 and then 600 mg orally. Good luck!

thank you for the reply!  i haven't noticed a supply drop, but i've only been on them for 4 days and i'm only taking 200 mg.
