Have Chocolate Cyst In Ovary. Took Chrimone Injection And Crinone. Why Am I Not Getting Pregnant?
Question: Hi, i've been married for 7 months, not yet pregnant, gone through lots of tests that proven i'm ok except for a choclate cyst in left ovary 3cm thank God, now my doctor advised to take Chrimone injection and then Crinone for 14 days, i've already taken the Chrimone, but i'm worried to take the Crinone as i already has a normal progestrone level. So would you help me take the decision, knowing that i took it for 1 day already ?
Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Your doctor kept the drugs to you to suppress the estrogen effect which is responsible for the growth of the chocolate cyst.
Though your progesterone levels are normal, by taking the additional progesterone the effect of estrogen can be decreased.
So you can continue the tablets as given by your doctor.
Once your chocolate cyst regresses you can plan pregnancy.

Thanks, i just want to highlight that, after checking my cyst more than once, its said that its constant in size.
Also i've been asked to take Crinone gel, which after searching, i can see it has lots of side effects, so shall i still be taking it ?
If yes, now i missed one day, is it ok? And the one i took was at night, shall i continue to be taking it at the same time? Or just restart now?

Hi,
Though the cyst is of same size, usually it won't regress by its own as simple cyst.
And can lead to future complications, so better to use the gel.
Prolonged use can cause side effects, but as you have to take only for 2 weeks, that may not cause severe side effects.
Now you can continue the gel during nights, daily at same time.
Wish you Good Health, If you are satisfied with my response please rate the answer after closing the discussion.
