excuse me I have another question if you don't mind ..
the previous doctors gave me a prescribtion of a prontogest 400 vaginal suppositories twice daily
and my new doctors said it is too much.. but no worries about continuing them..
is it ok to take that high dose of progestrone or it is normal for icsi ??

Hi!
If you were my patient, I would advise you that you should definitely continue the progesterone.  The estrogen is probably no longer necessary, so if your new doctor feels strongly that you shouldn't take it, you could probably safely discontinue it.  You might want to ask the two doctors to speak with each other for best results!  
Hope all goes well!
