Hi,

Why were progesterone soft gel prescribed? Any particular time of teh cycle that they were prescribed?
Progesterone will not help in getting pregnant on the contrary they can prevent you from getting pregnant if taken in the wrong part of the cycle.
once you are taking progesterone and if you stop taking, you will get something called the withdrawal bleeding,which you have.
Please get a complete evaluation if you have been trying for more than a year to get pregnant and only then take nay medications.

Hope this helps.
Regards.
