Ghost, anyone-Crinone side effects?

Post by winnie71 »

I am on my 2nd cycle (Back to back) and towards the end of the 1st, the progesterone (in the form of crinone) was starting to keep me up at night, esp w/ nite sweats. This cycle, that started immediately, and sleeping is awful. What's worse, and I have heard it makes you pee a lot, is that I am having to pee, I mean really pee, at least 5 times a night. And that's w/ my last fluid intake being a 7oz of V8 at 7pm. Where is all that fluid coming from? I wasn't ever, and am not now, bloated from the stims. Anyone else have this happen and have any ideas? Would inserting the crinone at different times of the day help?

Increased urination is a side effect. I doubt changing the time would have much effect on that, but ask your doctor.

If you are not happy with the Crinone, there are alternatives. Your doctor may have some favorites.
Avoid IVF and surrogacy in Ukraine. Ukrainian centers pay shills to post here under numerous sock accounts pretending to be patients in Ukraine. Centers using such deceptive advertising cannot be trusted and should be avoided.

I mainly experience cramps, swollen breasts, night (and day) sweats, and frequent urination (3 times a night.) I use the Crinone in the morning. So perhaps that's why I only have to pee three times a night? Good luck.
