If you are using progesterone (I have been prescribed capsules to insert vaginally) - does it seem like your body is not actually absorbing it? I started it on Tuesday - I have been px 3xs/day- and it seems as though the capsules are accumulating so to speak...sorry, I'm sure this is TMI, but I was just wondering if this is normal...
Thanks!

I am doing Supposetories and I feel the same way as you do. I wonder how it can possibly be absorbing anything when it seems like it is all over my undies! But my doctor said that your body will take as much as you need of it and then of course we will get rid of the rest of it. \
My RE gave me a good tip this time around. they said that the one I do at night time, not a big issues becuase I am laying down for 8 hours afterwards, She said for the one in the am, just insert like 1/2 hr before you get up so your bod will absorb most of it. It seems like it is working a little better for me. Not as much "discharge" as last time.
Hope this helps.

Jenn, I hope everything turns out for both of us! It seems like there have been lots of bfp's lately!!! This would give us even more to be thankful for and celebrate this season~ you are in my thoughts! I am also trying not to get too high over this cycle, but I also want to be as positive as possible. It's really hard to strike that balance when you've been going through this for so long...

I feel normal I guess...how about you? how many dpo/IUI are you? I am 9 and it's killing me!!! I had pretty bad cramping on Friday...not sure if that was a good sign or not, I've heard that lots of people are crampy, but I guess time will tell!

sorry to hear that...maybe not though, so don't give up yet...it aint' over till AF sings!!! Hey, I am going to post this on the TTC board, but I'll ask you too...does your RE do any b/w before the trigger? Mine just did an u/s, but I have read that some others do b/w to check estradiol levels...just wondering if I need to ask the dr about that...
