I used Crinone for my first IVF cycle and I had the same 'issues' as you Hayseed. Most of it 'came down' during AF, which made it incredibly yucky.

I didn't get sore bbs from Crinone, but did on the pessaries. My dr reckons that any 'symptoms' should be ignored when you're on progesterone, but that's a heck of a lot easier said then done!
