progesterone in oil or cream after bfp?

Post by kandice »

did our med teaching this am and the coordinator said once a pg is established I would need to continue on the progestrone in oil until week 8. she said there's always a cream available but it's more expensive.

has anyone heard of it? better than shots?

The only thing I have heard about the cream is that it is hard to monitor the dosage. My dr. has talked about a little pill you put under you tongue and let disolve 3 times a day. Ever heard of that? I will be glad to stop doing the shots, but hope this is as effective. Same with the cream.

I am currently doing the cream. It is a vaginal insert. I am also doing the progesterone in seseme seed oil. I rotate the two.
