My friend finally got pg after 2 years battling IF. She did 2 IUIs (failed) and finally got pg with her second IVF. She is 7w4d today.
She was injecting herself with progesterone (in addition to Lovenox) until Saturday, when her RE switched her to progesterone suppositories.
She just called and is spotting red, obviously scared to death.
Any chance the prog. sup. irritated her cervix enough to cause red spotting?
Re: Can progesterone suppositories make you bleed?
She already called the RE. She's going in tomorrow for an u/s. I gave her the standard advice: lay down, lots of water, wear a pad to monitor amount of bleeding, if it gets bad, go to the ER.
She's having menstrual-like cramps too

I believe that if you insert progesterone with an applicator you have a greater chance of irritation/bleeding. I did the suppositories without an applicator, which was kind of gross but no bleeding. However, I did want to add that I had tons of cramping the entire time I was on the progesterone, which was til 10 1/2 or so weeks with this pregnancy.
Many thoughts and prayers for your friend.
