Progesterone - suppositories or shots?

Question

Answer

I'm on endometrin 3 times a day and shots every three nights. If I had it to do over I'd pick just shots. I feel like I've had a yeast infection for two months straight!

Answer

I’ve done two cycles of suppositories 3x a day for 12 weeks and it was gross. I always tried to lay down or sit for a while after but the white pill was quite large and the mess comes out eventually. This cycle two years later my dr is having me do shots based off of research even though I got pregnant on a round of suppositories my clinic prefers pio shots.

Answer

I’ve done both. The shots I didn’t want to do myself because they go in the muscle so I had to go in once a week for them plus the daily suppositories. I have sciatic issues and I can tell you the shots left me with achy thighs an a very itchy injection site. 
The suppositories are a pain because they’re messy and all but I prefer them. I just got one of those Inserters used with like monistat because my pharmacy wouldn’t just give me one and busing those would help place the pill farther up and cause less of a mess once it melted. Either way though just wear a panty liner and you’re fine. The shots are pretty thick. If I would’ve been on them daily I think I’d cry lol. I’m on lovenox injections daily already but those don’t go in the muscle so they’re a tad better lol. Good luck.

Answer

I've never done the shots, just the suppositories. Mine were white and I was instructed to do them at bed time. They didnt bother me and it was fairly easy and convenient.

Answer

I’ve been taking the little red pill suppositories and they’re super easy and not gross. I’d stick with them if possible!

Answer

Are pills an option? Sorry, I’m not familiar with the assisted fertility part,  but I’m on them while pregnant to prevent miscarriage and my doctor has me on pills.
