just the thread i was looking for...I have used pessaries before, and tomorrow start using crinone for the first time....we are hoping to have an embryo transfer on sunday
Thankyou thankyou thankyou so much for your responses!
I checked with my FS and am using crinone in the morning and pessaries at night and it seems to be going ok so far! He said it was fine as long as I was consistent, it also means I don't have to lie down for 30 mins during the day. I just don't think I could have coped with 2 crinone a day like last cycle, was so irritated inside, it was horrible I think my poor vaj was a crinone storage facility.
Possums come join us in the TWW thread (and anyone else who wants to aswell)
Aimee, the crinone is gross, I agree. I spoke to the nurses in our clinic though and they all said to have a..... *ahem*.... "clear out" every couple of days or so..... this seemed to work well for me
I used Crinone for my fresh cycle only and pessaries for my frozn cycles, although this last cycle they ran out of pessaries for about 5 weeks so I had to switch to crinone (I was taking until I reached 10 weeks). Who knows if the crinone helped both embryo's stick or not???? Once I was back on the pessaries I started inserting them rectally as I had a UTI for about 4 weeks and the leakage from using them vaginally would iritate the UTI even more. Oh, plus the pessaries are heaps cheaper than the crinone.....
The crinone does leave a "cottage cheese" residual and I found every couple of days in the shower I had to had a clean out - not pleasant but if I didn't do it can you imagine how much would be up there after 5 weeks .
