crinone 8% gell - progesterone cream

Post by hoping4bfp »

Is anyone else using crinone 8% gell? I was switched to that from the progesterone shots after I got my bfp. The issue I'm having now, wondering about is ...

It's a cream that I use vaginally at night. The problem is that I now have to pee three times a night give or take. And I'm concerned that I'm messing up the dosage of the progesterone since I have to go to the bathroom so many times.

Has anyone else had this kind of issue and know if it's really a problem or not?

Hoping...I had the same concerns. I was actually told to switch to the a.m. application by my RE because the manufacturer said there is less issues with build-up. I was even more worried, and they said not to worry. The dosage accounts for some leakage, apparently. I wish you all the luck in the world, and know that your question is not a new one, and is valid. I'm sure you'll be fine, Hon...

Hello
I had the same concerns...I work nights and I would use it when I got home in the AM however this was after a night of drinking tons of water but every blood draw I had looked good and I was worried for nothing....It does account for some leakage....
