Used this to start AF after skipping 9 of last 15 months. Got next AF on own but had cramps unlike any that I'd ever had in the past.

Doing Progesterone Shots. Husband does them, but I actually had to do one once because he wasn't home in time. Not that sore. Have 23gauge needle, which helps.

Did what it was supposed to do in forcing a period. I took it before each of my three cycles of Clomid

I took Prometrium while seeing the endocrinologist, and seemed to bring my period on always. I am taking Provera now and it also brings on my period. I usually break through and get my period on day 7 or 8. The only side effects I feel are mood swings and of course bloating. The cramps are pretty severe as well.
