The most common side effects of this medicine include nausea, stomach pain, headache, nasal congestion, sinus pain, sinus inflammation, rash, tiredness, and musculoskeletal (bone, muscle or joint) pain.

Bleeding during pregnancy is not a good thing. Pause 500 will not really help alone. Progesterone injections weekly along with oral progesterone support should be started.
