Progesterone pessaries and brown discolouration

[briggsy's girl]

I'll third what the others have said - i was advised it is very common for the progesterone (whether it be pessaries or crinone) to irritate your cervix and create some mild bleeding. i was advised if it was a large amount, or fresh blood (as opposed to older brown) to contact the clinic immediately - but if it's a small amount of old blood it should be ok. as the others have said though, if you're concerned, contact your clinic - you pay them big bucks to get you pregnant - the least they can do is set your mind at ease now!!

and ditto again - congrats on the pregnancy!

Hi there,
yes, I experienced this also. I got heaps of brown stuff that I thought was old blood, but I was told it was just the cream (I had the cream) coming back out.
Congratulations on your pregnancy and goodluck!
