Hi Ladies! I'm 40 yrs old, 5W 3D, had 2 MCs, and according to the stats I'm a geriatric high risk pregnancy...LOL! Boy I tell you I'm so happy I don't worry about what people call me. I'm inserting one progesterone suppository each night. Are any of you ladies using them?
Yep, i do and i haved used them for all 3 of my pregnancies. The ones I using now are red so you can just imagine how I feel everytime I go to the restroom and see red. I naturally have low progesterone so that why I need them. Good luck ladies.
Hey, another old lady! I'm also 40. IVF pregnancy, so I'm on Endometrin suppositories 3x/day in addition to PIO shots (hate them!). Haven't asked yet how long this clinic will keep me on them.
Didn't know there was a red version out there. That sounds awful!

I’m on them 3x/day. I’ve had several miscarriages so hopefully the progesterone along with other meds I’m on is working. I normally have spotting and haven’t noticed any this time. I’m 8 + 4.
Mine are red as well but oral. I think the red ones are intended as oral so the red is a smooth coating to make swallowing it easier, but Dr's have been using it as a suppository for faster absorbtion. I have P-2 written on my pill.
Yup, IVF pregnancy so I use the suppositories every morning. They tested my progesterone last week and it was >120 so I should be able to stop them after my 7 week ultrasound if everything looks good.
