What Are the Uses of Progesterone Injection and How Can Ayurveda Support Hormonal Balance? - #14933

Anonymously

I’ve been trying to conceive for several months now, and my doctor recommended progesterone injection to support my pregnancy, as my progesterone levels were found to be low. The doctor explained that progesterone injection helps in maintaining the pregnancy and supporting the uterine lining, but I’m a bit concerned about the potential side effects. I’ve heard that progesterone injections can cause bloating, mood swings, and headaches, and I’m not sure if I’m prepared to deal with them. I’m also wondering if there are natural ways to support progesterone production and enhance fertility without relying solely on progesterone injections. I’ve heard that Ayurveda offers treatments to balance hormones, so I’m curious if there are herbs, foods, or lifestyle changes that could support my progesterone levels and fertility naturally. I’ve read that herbs like Shatavari and Ashwagandha are commonly used in Ayurveda for reproductive health—could they be useful for someone like me who is trying to conceive? Are there other practices, like yoga or meditation, that could help balance hormones and support a healthy pregnancy? Has anyone here used progesterone injections and found relief or support from Ayurvedic remedies to balance their hormones during the process? What worked best for you in preparing for conception and managing any side effects?
