TTC after a Tubal Reversal ~Come Join Me~

[Dash]

Tater- progesterone really can be helpful in sustaining pregnancy. It comes in a lot of different forms- creams, tabs, suppositories. Are you looking for a certainm kind of progesterone, or just curious about the progesterone itself? No matter how the progesterone gets into the body it serves the same purpose. Perhaps instead of stressing about one certain kind, you could just ask about progesterone in general? The topical creams are OTC, for the more concentrated forms you need a rx.

I may not know a lot about TTC, but I'm an OB/GYN dictionary I was in nursing a long time, and OB always interested me the most

Tater I was on progestrone to help sustain this pregnancy...before the dr gave me the RX for it I was using a otc from GNC but didn't start using it until I knew FOR SURE that I Ovulated. Starting it to soon can mess with your cycle.

Just out of sheer curiosity...I had a friend who had to do the progesterone suppositories, but I never thought to ask her why she needed them or how it was discovered she needed them. After she started those, she did end up having a baby girl. Now that I am TTC...is there anything that I should be looking for or be aware of? Can you tell by charting you may need progesterone? Just curious...

Hey...how did you get the cute little cycle day ticker to show up at the bottom of your posts?

Okay, remember how I said that my DH said that Pre-seed was sticky and gross and that he hated it? I was racking my brain trying to think of some other option and then I remembered that when he went in for his analysis before I had my TR, they told him the only kind of lubricant they would allow was canola oil. So, I thought, if they would let him use it for THAT, well, it MUST be friendly...so I did a lot of online research and apparently it is fertility friendly and has no effect whatsoever on sperm. And it is a whole lot cheaper than Pre-seed!

Isn't it bizarre the things we are all willing to try when we are TTC? Even my DH is on board with canola oil. It makes me laugh...especially when I think that before October, if someone had told me to put canola oil down there, I would have thought they were CRAZY! But now I am running off to the grocery store! Hahaha....

Usually people who have repeated miscarriages use progesterone to sustain pregnancy in the first trimester (some women miscarry because their bodies do not create enough progesterone fast enough). But progesterone can work the same in late pregnancy- you can take it to prevent preterm delivery.

Research progesterone creams- even some women with no history of miscarriage use them. It might be something you want to do?

Tater you dr can do a cd 21 blood test and check your progestrone level which will also let you knw for sure if you ovulated. As far as me I just knew it was my progestrone I could litterally feel the pregnancy leave my body. Odd to say but that is how I knew.
