I have been on progesterone suppositories twice daily since my IUI on April 12, 2011. I got my BFP on April 25, 2011. Has anyone else had a yeast infection or painful vaginal itching while using suppositories? Do you have sex while using the suppositories?
Re: Progesterone suppositories, itching, and sex
Ive been on Crinone (?) 4% gel twice a day for what seems like forever now. Ive been slightly irritated in that region ever since starting on it - but no YI. I just try to keep it as clean as possible down there (which seems like a losing battle most of the time). DH and I usually do our thing in the shower, I am a little paranoid about the progesterone gel getting on him, I figure if my body is supposed to absorb it - whats stopping it from being absorbed by him?. I just think it makes more sence for him to wash up immediately afterwards - just incase.
Hopefully, once I finish this week I will be off of the gel for good. Good luck to you!
