Missed Day 1 of Progesterone tablets
« on: November 15, 2025, 12:49:17 PM »

Hello,
I'm looking for some advice about progesterone. I'm on my 2nd month of cyclical HRT for early menopause, and forgot to take my day 15 progesterone tablets last night. If I take the first tablets tonight (day 16) should I carry on taking them for days 16 - 27 or stop on day 26? And if I take the tablets days 16 - 27 should I continue this way in the following month, with progesterone on days 16 - 27 or revert to the original pattern of days 15 - 26? Hope this makes sense!
I'm currently setting alarms in my calendar so I can (hopefully) avoid missing any other doses in the future!
Thanks in advance for any advice x

You are massively overthinking it.

Just forget about it and take the rest of the course as planned.

If you are still having natural menstrual cycles you will bleed when you bleed, this won't be affected by a mistimed progesterone dose.

Hi LiliRose
I wouldn't worry too much about it, missing one day isn't so bad. If I was you I would just take my progesterone from day 16 to 26 this time and then revert to your original schedule next month/cycle and start on day 15 to 26 again
