I keep mine in the refrigerator, they should have storage instructions on the box. Mine had big, hard to miss labels on the box.

Re: q about ordivel and vaginal progesterone suppositories
For Ovidrel- yes keep it in the fridge!
For the suppositories- the first time around I was on these waxy suppositories in a pill container with no applicator. They were these little capsules. I was told that they don't need to be refrigerated but they could be- so I did that and I found it made them less gross.
This time around I'm on a different type and was told it doesn't need to be refrigerated. It's in a gel and has an applicator so it's a little different.
Ask the RE or pharmacist!!

I think they don't NEED to be, but they can be more comfortable to use when they're refrigerated since they can be waxy

Re: q about ordivel and vaginal progesterone suppositories
I was on the progesterone suppositories and didn't keep them in the fridge. When I was throwing them out it said they were supposed to be refrigerated, but I guess they worked anyways because I'm 19 weeks now.

Re: q about ordivel and vaginal progesterone suppositories
I had to keep the suppositories in the fridge. They were the creamy bullet-shaped ones, not the pills. I don't remember about the ovidrel.
