Sarah-first of all I am sorry to hear about your baby. How awful that must have been for you both. Could they definitly link progesterone to the cause of your baby's problems because you only took the medicine for 1 month-deformities usually occur due to a chronic situation or of course a genetic problem. Four weeks is not considered chronic use. I personally have taken progesterone with all three of my pregnancy's from the time I ovulated until the time I gave birth and thank god, all of them are healthy. Most studies are over cautious, as they should be, in their reporting of how progesterone "could" affect a pregnancy. It is the same thing as caffeine. They reccomend you don't take in caffeine when you are pregnant because they are being overly cautious. No matter what the reason was for what happened to your child I am just so sorry and could never imaging that pain. I just wanted to make sure that all the good things the medicine has done for millions of mothers didn't get overlooked. Take care and good luck with your family.
