I called my RE this morning to make sure I had the right prescription.
I do.
But, I'm taking them in the wrong way.
I'm supposed to insert the pills vaginally.
Say Whhaaattttt?
It had to have been the funniest conversation to overhear.
Me: I picked up my prescription last night and it's pills. I just wanted to make sure it wasn't a mistake.
Nurse: No mistake. You need to take them vaginally.
Me: But, it's just a little blue pill.
Nurse: Yes, I know.
Me: And, I wasn't given any "tools".
Nurse: Yes, I know.
Me: I just want to clarify - this is the same prescription that I had for my IVF cycle and I took them orally. Now, you're saying they also double as coochie pills?
So, how in the hell am I supposed to get a little blue pill the size of baby asiprin "up there"?
I'd need hands as big as Kareem Abdul-Jabar's.
I know!
This sounds like a job for McGyver! If he can fashion a bomb out of mayonnaise and tampons, surely he can get a little blue pill in my who-ha!
Wish me luck.... I'm goin' in!

I just found you through busted's blog. I am doing my FET tuesday.
I had to insert those, one cycle. IKWYM- they are tiny and slippery!
Good luck. I think they are more effective inserted, b/c your liver(kidney?) isn't getting rid of the progesterone. I'll be stalking you!
LOL. I thought the same thing the first time I was given those instructions...I think they...um...meander their way northward once inserted...Good luck! After just 2 days of vaginal estrace my lining jumped almost 2 mm.
Very funny! I just ordered some progesterone capsules that I have to use in the same manner during my next IUI cycle. Not fun...
LOL! Yep pills go in the other end too--who knew??
Who knew the things we'd be doing to our bodies when we embarked on this IF journey?? Hope the vaginal capsules do the trick!!
LMFAO. You are too funny.
Good luck!! I hope those little blue pills do the trick.
Good luck - I hope the pills are helping! Do you go back in to the doctor for more bloodwork tomorrow?
