Hi ladies,

I am on 6th week through ivf, using progesterone pessaries twice and also taking pio shots. Has anyone experienced vaginal irritation around the labia while using it. Any remedies to overcome the itch/irritation there.

Thx.

Hi Cherie. Sounds like you might have a bit of thrush, which is easily treated with a one-off pessary and cream to rub into your lady bits. If you have ever had thrush, it can always be lurking around, especially if on antibiotics. Speak to your GP or pharmacist as treatment can corespond with fertility treatment quite safely. Diane
