I know that progesterone is a hormone that prepares the lining of the uterus to nourish a fertilized egg. Do you need progesterone for a period to start? And if you do and don’t have regular periods does that mean that you won’t be able to have kids or that it will just be harder to conceive?

    b-cuz we got to be playing guessing game’s with are AF U know .
    and yes u do need provera to induce a period and try to get u regulated if u have irregular cycle’s.

    im from Bakersfield, CA and over here i just told my doc..that i wantted to take clomid and he told me that was fine. but i dont have normal periods. so.. he proscribed me —
    1. METFORMIN 500 MG "TO DOUBLE MY CHANCES TO GET PGS"
    2. PROVERA 10 MG "TO INDUCE MY PERIOD"
    3. CLOMID 50 MG "TO GET ME OVULATING TO GET PGS"

    But im only taking metformin 500 MG x 2 a day till i get pregnant to double my chances on getting pgs NOTE: I DO NOT HAVE PCSO.
    but i will be taking provera 10 mg on feb 21,2009 to induce my period so then when im on the 5th day of my period i will be taking clomid 50 mg for 5 day’s. CD 5-9 then go see my doc. and do me an ultrasound to see if i am ovulating well girl i hope i helped a lil on some info u will be asking pretty soon when thay put you on clomid.

    if you want clomid so bad tell ur doc.. that u been trying to get pregnant for over a yr so they could just put u on it b-cuz they usally want u to try for the first yr.

    People with regular periods have 12 chances to get pregnant within a yr and girls with irregular period have 6 chances out of 1 yr to get pregnant. and the researches i’ve done. Girlz on clomid have a 85% chance to become pregnant on the pill "clomid". and my doc told me that usally people on clomid will get pregnant on there 2nd or 3rd round of clomid. My doc.. told me i should get pregnant on my 2nd or 3rd round of clomid if everything works out good well good luck girl keep us updated on what happens.

    It will just be harder. You should see your gyno. He will be able to explain it to you. Go ahead and start taking pernatal vitamins so your body will be ready for pregnancy.

    I have irregular periods, it is harder to conceive. You never know when you might ovulate, so you can’t plan it out. It took my husband and I over a year of unprotected sex to conceive.

    Progesterone actually works in too many ways:
    It helps in nourishing the fertilised egg.
    It help is reducing the risk of miscarriage.
    Stops unnecessary bleeding.
    Also helps in regulating periods.

    If you are not having regular periods doesn’t mean you can’t conceive. Its only abit hard. And you may at times need medical support for that. I have seen many ladies with irregular periods and now they are happy mothers.

    Hey sweetie..
    Its not impossible, just makes it more difficult..Here’s what i found:

    Irregular periods can be troublesome when trying to get pregnant. Irregular or abnormal ovulation and menstruation accounts for 30% to 40% of all cases of infertility. Irregularity, per se, is not necessarily a problem if you learn how to chart your fertility signs, especially cervical fluid, to determine when you are approaching your short window of fertility. But, if cycles are very long, it means by definition, that ovulation is not occurring as often as it would with a typical monthly cycle, a condition known clinically as anovulation.

    There are numerous factors that determine how fertile a woman is, such as her age, whether and how often she ovulates, whether her cervical fluid is wet enough to sustain sperm, whether her fallopian tubes are open, etc. But the most important of all is the release of the egg itself. If you don’t release an egg, meaning you don’t ovulate, you don’t have as many opportunities to get pregnant

    Women with irregular periods are often prescribed fertility drugs like Clomid to increase the number of ovulation periods. But if you would rather try a more natural approach, you might want to see a naturopathic doctor first to see if they can prescribe a less harsh treatment.

    Although anovulation can usually be treated with fertility drugs, it is important to rule out other conditions that could interfere with ovulation, such as liver disease, diabetes, problems with the ovaries, and abnormalities of the adrenal, pituitary, or thyroid glands, which produce important hormones.

    Hope it helps..

    Good Luck! x
