Prometrium (Progesterone) Buyer and Patient Handbook in Singapore
What is Prometrium?
Prometrium is a synthetic progesterone pill used in women’s health to support the luteal phase and manage hormone-related conditions. It belongs to the progestogen class and is approved by the Health Sciences Authority (HSA) for hormone replacement therapy, luteal-phase support in assisted reproduction, and treatment of Abnormal Uterine Bleeding. The medication is available in 100 mg and 200 mg oral tablets.
Who Should Use Prometrium?
- Women undergoing in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) needing luteal-phase support.
- Individuals with confirmed progesterone deficiency (e.g., during menopause).
- Patients prescribed for secondary amenorrhoea or dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding.
- Women requiring hormone replacement therapy (HRT) after menopause.
How Does It Work?
Prometrium mimics natural progesterone by binding to progesterone receptors in the uterus, breast, and brain. This stabilises the endometrium, reduces uterine contractions, and prepares the lining for possible implantation. The effect is similar to the natural hormone that follows ovulation in a normal menstrual cycle.
Why Choose Prometrium?
- Consistent dosing: Tablet form provides precise, reproducible doses.
- Regulatory assurance: HSA-approved with a clear safety profile.
- Convenient administration: Oral intake fits easily into daily routines.
- Off-label uses (e.g., for Migraine prophylaxis) should only be considered after professional consultation.

Reviews
Started on 200mg nightly for three weeks now. The sleep improvement is incredible; I finally feel rested for the first time in months. BUT, the morning grogginess is crippling. I literally set my alarm for 30 minutes earlier just to lay there and wake up slowly. User hack: You absolutely must take this with a significant amount of food, preferably yogurt or milk, or the nausea will hit hard. It's a good trade-off despite the intense drowsiness.
This 100mg pill makes me *so* moody. My husband said I was crying during a commercial for rice. I'm only on week one, and the breast soreness is unbearable, feels like concrete. I'm supposed to continue for another cycle. Does this extreme emotional sensitivity eventually normalize? I'm taking it vaginally now, based on advice I saw online, and the localized side effects (discharge) are annoying, but at least the head-fog is slightly better.
Been using the 200mg dose cyclically for almost a year to regulate heavy periods. It works perfectly for that-my cycle is textbook, which is a life saver. However, the anxiety spike during the first three days of the dose is real. It feels like low-grade panic. My trick is splitting the pills: 100mg at 7 PM and the other 100mg at 10 PM. This seems to soften the peak psychoactive effect and makes the next day slightly less chaotic. Highly effective, but you pay for it emotionally.
I tried Prometrium after failing to tolerate the synthetic versions. It’s better, but I still get the worst dry mouth and weird metal taste immediately after taking the capsule. For me, 100mg does the job without inducing complete sedation. I make sure to drink two full glasses of water right before bed, which helps, but I still wake up feeling like cotton mouth desert. The progesterone itself helps keep my lining healthy, so I'm sticking with it, despite the continuous thirst.
I feel like I got my brain back after suffering through synthetic HRT for years. Prometrium 200mg is amazing for mood stabilization. Trade-off: vivid, bizarre nightmares. Seriously, I spent an hour last night arguing with a talking fish. It doesn't interfere with the sleep quality itself, just the *content* of the dreams is exhausting. Veteran's tip: Do not, under any circumstances, take this on an empty stomach after 7 PM if you need to be sharp before 10 AM the next day.
Attempting to use this for fertility support (luteal phase). My progesterone levels are great now, which is the main win. The side effect I didn't anticipate was the intense migraine aura about 45 minutes after taking the dose, followed by a dull headache that lasts till morning. The hack my specialist gave me: take a magnesium supplement 30 minutes *before* the Prometrium. It significantly reduced the frequency and severity of the headaches. Still tough, but manageable.
It works fine for managing my perimenopausal symptoms-fewer hot flashes and my sleep is reliably deep. The catch is the fluid retention. I swear I gain 3-4 pounds of bloat in the week I take the 100mg pills. Nothing seems to drain it; I just swell up. I try to cut back drastically on sodium during the treatment week, but it barely helps. Effective for the primary goal, terrible for the waistband.
I took this for two years for cycle control with no issues, purely positive experience (great sleep, less PMS). Then, I started using it continuously, and everything flipped. I developed intense heartburn-not mild reflux, but actual esophageal burning every night, even on 100mg. It felt like my stomach was eating itself. Back to cyclic use now, which solved the heartburn, but the thought of continuous dosing terrifies me. User experience highly depends on the protocol.
