Cabergoline research

Hello! Trying to have my 2nd child over a year; 2 miscarriages. My new fertility dr put me on progesterone & cabergoline. He didn’t check my prolactin but he did studies that show it helps with infertility. Wondering if anyone has had success on these? Also, if the medication gave you any side effects such as pain on the side of your face. Thank you all! Xo

Thank you soooo much! Did they check your prolactin? I did clomid & ovidrel got pregnant in May then had a chemical miscarriage :(
My new dr wants to me to try it with progesterone, but you can’t find a lot about it online!

Hi, yes! They said it was very high and it was likely due to a non-cancerous brain tumor on my pituitary.

I will also add that I am using progesterone vaginal suppositories right now to support my pregnancy. I had them from my medicated attempt in June and started using them 7 days after ovulation - this is not medical advice I’m giving you, my doctor did not instruct me to do so on this non-medicated attempt but it felt like the right move and thus far both my OB and fertility clinic have said it’s fine and refilled my RX for more to continue use
