Why haven’t I had my period after taking progesterone for 6 days?

1. It is normal not to have menstruation after taking progesterone for 6 days. You need to take it according to the course of treatment. Withdrawal bleeding will occur 5 to 7 days after stopping the medication.

2. Progesterone is a biologically active progesterone secreted by the ovaries. This hormone can regulate the endometrium, promote glandular growth, uterine congestion and endometrial thickening. It can be used to treat symptoms such as menstrual disorders and amenorrhea caused by various reasons. Common drugs include progesterone capsules, estradiol dydrogesterone tablets, dydrogesterone tablets, etc.

3. During the medication period, the endometrium will continue to thicken, and the hormone level in the body will be relatively stable. The endometrium has sufficient hormone support and will not be ischemic, oxygen necrotized or shed. It is normal not to have menstruation during medication. According to the doctor's advice, after the course of treatment, the hormone level in the body will gradually decrease. The thickened endometrium is ischemic, oxygen necrotized and shed, which can form withdrawal bleeding. It takes about 5 to 7 days from discontinuation of medication to withdrawal bleeding, which is equivalent to replacing one menstruation, and can play a role in assisting in regulating the menstrual cycle.

4. It is recommended that before taking progesterone drugs, a detailed examination should be conducted to clarify the specific cause of menstrual disorders, and appropriate medication should be selected according to the doctor's advice. During the medication process, good treatment compliance is required to avoid arbitrarily increasing or decreasing the dosage. At the same time, women also need to strengthen personal life care, such as avoiding staying up late, doing more outdoor activities and exercise, and maintaining an optimistic and cheerful attitude.
