Is Progesterone Therapy Safe Be Taken While Breastfeeding?
Hi, I am 37, I have 3 children and I have had 2 miscarriages. The first between my 1st and 2nd child, and the second one was in Oct. of this year. I am breastfeeding my now 9 month old daughter. I have heard of women taking progesterone therapy and I am wondering if maybe my progesterone is low? Would taking progesterone help my chances to get and stay pregnant, would it be safe to take while breastfeeding also? My husband and I want more children, and we are certainly not getting younger, my husband is 7 years older than me. Thank You, Concerned mama
