Took Crinone (vag) mistakenly instead of Progynova (vag

Hi everyone, I need you advise and guidance desperately :(.

I started today with medication prep for FET and I took the first dose of Progynova orally at 9am but as medications had not arrived yet, I managed all in panic to open the med package and take quickly at 11:30 one dose of Crinone pessary (vag) instead of Progynova pessary (vag).

I was in a meeting and was panicking and in a rush and I am not even sure how I didn't read right :(

Called the nurses and waiting for their guidance as they noted we might need to abort the whole thing and today is my 3rd day of my periods.

Not sure if you have or know any similar situations but I appreciate your thoughts and ideas on what to do. I am 42 y and we only have 2 embryos (PGS-ed) and not sure if I should stop and start again next month with FET? To note this is my first ever attempt for FET/ pregnancy.

Do you think there will be side effects or any impact on lining?

Thank you tonsss for all your thoughts...

Best, Val

Hi... I think the nurse /doctor will tell you to stop and do it next month. If you mistakenly take wrong medication. That's happened to me similar situation I have a transfer on that day. I don't do my injection. I phone hospital and they cancelled the transfer. (wait for their advice)

Thank you Fudge1980, I was chasing them until now and they got back saying we won't proceed :((....and to make things worse seems like I will have to wait until January for the FET due to Christmas holidays.

I am devastated :(

Aww am so sorry lovely 💕 big hugs. I know it won’t feel like it right now but imagine going ahead and then always wondering if you should have waited. Give yourself some time to get your head around it and get ready for the next cycle 😘xx
