I was told to do mine. They do a thorough clean of the 'area' before transfer!

Thanks all, I have to leave before they've phoned me first thing as it's a long way so I think I'll just do it as that seems to be the majority x

Mine said with cyclogest to do it rectally to avoid the prblem bit that only works if you can do your progesterone rectally. x

The clinic should give you exact timings on when to include a progesterone pessarie in relation to your transfer.

Don't worry they give everything a good clean before transfer.

Good luck
