Guest guest Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 I don't think there is anymore 4% unless you get the thing called " Prochieve " which is the new name for crinone. The doctor told me to use half -- but frankly, I think it's just half of a tube - not half of 8%!! So use very little that's all. > > I was able to find Crinone 8% on inhousepharmacy.com, but not the 4 %. > Does anyone know another source or whether the 8% is designed in a way > that I can successfully use half the dose?

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Yes I do -- when I'm bleeding and can't stop. I had this problem a couple of months ago. I was getting hot flashes all day and all night long even though I was applying 4 mg of E cream. Turns out my E was at zero! THEN I start bleeding out of control --- for days on end - I thought this was it - hysterectomy -- but I remembered I had the crinone gel stuck in my closet. I used it 3 nights and the bleeding stopped! Whew! But it's not the most convenient form of P as you know. I'd rather stick some cream on my arm and get it over with right? > > > > > > I was able to find Crinone 8% on inhousepharmacy.com, but not the > > 4 %. > > > Does anyone know another source or whether the 8% is designed in a > > way > > > that I can successfully use half the dose?

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 Hi , I just picked up my prescription of Procheive and am also bleeding non stop and was wondering if you had any adverse symptoms from the P. This has only happened once when I bled for 10 days and then I upped my E and it stopped but now it seems that even w/more E it doesn't stop and with very little E it doesn't stop. I think I will try the gel.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 Hi Karin -- I had no adverse reaction to the crinone. But it isn't something I like to use on a constant basis because it's not that convenient. Good luck. > > > > > > > > > > I was able to find Crinone 8% on inhousepharmacy.com, but not > > the > > > > 4 %. > > > > > Does anyone know another source or whether the 8% is designed > > in a > > > > way > > > > > that I can successfully use half the dose?

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 If I'm not mistaken, there were clinical trials to test the efficacy of Prochieve/Crinone. They couldn't be marketed with FDA approval if there were no trials. Maybe to to the website and read the dosing/patient instructions. Val -----Original Message-----From: rhythmicliving [mailto:rhythmicliving ]On Behalf Of Atlanta Girl... I just spoke with my GYN who is unwilling for me to do vaginal P as there are no studies to confirm effectuality..... it would seem to me if we shed our lining with this that this ought to be enough... is there any way you can tell if it completely sheds away? Is is possible to have a partial period from ineffectual P?anyone know anything with this? Hi Karin -- I had no adverse reaction to the crinone. But it isn't something I like to use on a constant basis because it's not that convenient. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Hi - sorry I've been away and just saw this. There are no studies on Crinone? I got the name from the Uzzi Reiss book - he suggests using it for women with bleeding problems and fibroids so tell your gyno to get up to snuff! > > > Hi Karin -- I had no adverse reaction to the crinone.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 And I must say that it helped me stop my heavy bleeding in a few days the way not other P cream could ever do. > > > Hi Karin -- I had no adverse reaction to the crinone.
