Re: progesterone = evil
The only side effect I usually get in the 2ww is bloating .. which could be from a number of things 
I found personally I had less side effects using Crinone than regular progesterone supps! I had horrrrrible stomach cramps on the regular ones!

Re: progesterone = evil
I'm on crinone 2 times a day and E2v once a day. I already feel crazy. I don't know how I'll make it.

You don't need pio? Did you need pio for the fresh cycle?
(I'm trying to see if there's any hope I won't need pio!!  )

For the fresh, I needed PIO because of the Lupron trigger. For the frozen, he said crinone is totally fine. I asked 100 times because I'm totally paranoid.
Are you starting stims today??

Re: progesterone = evil
Yep...very evil...progesterone will fake you out every time. I find that for me Crinone is THE worst. I get vicious cramps and breast pain on it. I find that I get the least amount of fako pregnancy symptoms on PIO shots and a lot of symptoms on progesterone vaginal supps.

Stupid question. Crinone is a specific name/brand of a progesterone supp.?

Yup! Instead of the generic ones you (for lack of better words ) manually shove up there... this has an applicator and it's a creamy consistency. I have had a much better experience on those than on the regular suppositories. Although... any progesterone supp sounds good to me since I'll be doing PIO with my IVF cycle!!

Re: progesterone = evil
well, i do not know about regular progesterone, but crinone irritates the crap out of me, b/c it clumps and gets stuck there not bad, just takes getting used to. applicator is convenient, but I heard ( and i am not sure) that crinone is not as strong as regular progesterone.

Re: progesterone = evil
I am totally joining this club! Got a yeast infection my first month on progesterone, that was fun. Now this past cycle I totally thought that I was pregnant and I blame that entirely on the evil stuff. Now I know to not invest any emotions into progesterone related symptoms.

Re: progesterone = evil
I'm on progesterone/ endometrin suppositories now (not in the 2ww yet. ET on Sunday) and have all prego symptoms. Bloated, nauseous, constipated (sorry TMI) and my boobs are so sore.
But I am glad I am not using the shots. I have heard that those really hurt.
