I little advice....I am taking progesterone after my egg collection. I also took the same stuff last year. But it seems to irritate me down there. It feels like its burning. Has anyone else had this when inserting it into you vagina? Seeing my doctor tomorrow, but was wondering if anyone else has had experience

Irritated me so bad one time I thought I was getting thrush. I used canestan. It really helped. It’s safe to use because I asked my clinic xx

Check whether you can use them rectally? Lots of women do apparently. Lots less messy and less irritation of an area that frankly has had more attention than it ever ever needed or wanted. Xx

I would use them rectally if it’s cyclogest, I found it a lot more convenient and no mess x

I used cyclogest in September and they irritated me really bad so I had to use them through the back, which was actually fine and no mess at all.

Thanks all. I have put these up the back before and it’s worked fine. I’m with another clinic, so I’ll ask them tomorrrow x
