What was your experience with progesterone?

I came off of a low dose birth control 2 months ago and have not had a period since.  I am aware that it is normal to not have a period for 2-6 months after coming off of the pill but since it had been 60+ days I went to the doctor.  She sent me for bloodwork and told me if everything is ok with that she wants me to take progesterone for 10 days.  I am just curious if anyone else has taken it and what your experience has been.  Thank you in advance!

In this case it'll be used to jumpstart a new cycle for you.  You should start your period within a few days of the last pill.

Yup.  Basically you are tricking your body into thinking you Oed.
