Crinone question - kind of TMI/icky

What color is old crinone when it is discharged? Is it pinkish? Can it contain bits of darker maroon - or is this blood?

Hi Buliej - I believe that crinone can come out in different colours from an offwhite to pinkish and I guess maroon as well.. Crinone can irritate the cervix causing it to bleed a little therefore causing the pink but i'm not sure about maroon.. It could be AF if due or Implantation but it can comeout different colours.. Good luck.. HTH..

Hi Julie,
I regularly checked the old crinone inside, and quite often had from very light pinkish up to dark brown blood bits, which seemed to have been absorbed into the crinone. This continued for quite some weeks, in some part I think because of the crinone agitating the cervice, sometimes from me almost scratching myself inside trying to get the clumps out, and sometimes I think from a little bit of spotting. I am sure it is all normal, crossing everything for you, xx

Thanks BDT. That's exactly what's happening. This is my third week on it as I'm doing the Colorado protocol and you stay on it if you get a BFP. I'm actually happy to hear that it aggravates the cervix as that could explain the different colors. It is so slight - it almost looks like little dust bits mixed into the gross old cream that comes out - but I examine EVERYTHING. To top it off, the crinone costs $199!!! it's not part of the treatment cost after the initial TWW.

I found that it ranged from the actual colour of the crinone to pink.
I stopped it last week (Fri) when I got my BFP and am STILL finding bits are coming out!! :redface: But I am glad to have stopped it because it was starting to feel very irritated down there when I was applying it.

Not cool.
