Colored Discharge from Crinone Progesterone Cream

I am hoping someone can help me with the answer to this question since I am stumped.  I am 9 weeks pregnant and this is my fourth pregnancy.  The first two ended in miscarriage and for the third I was put on Crinone Progesterone Cream and it was successful.  I am once again on the Crinone but have been having a pinkish or salmon colored discharge mixed in with the Crinone.  I did not have the pink color discharge with my last pregnancy.  I am not spotting and have been to my Doctor a few times already and everything is going as planned.  I even called the maker of Crinone and they said the dischrage should be white or off white.  I don't think it is blood because it is an odd color and I had the bleeding with my first miscarriage and this looks different.  When I go to the bathroom there is also no blood or anything abnormal.  I have read other comments about people having this colored discharge and their doctor them it was normal.  Has anyone else heard of seen this?? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!  Thanks, Scared to death mom to be.

I was advised by my RE office nurse that crinone gel can cause pink tinged discarge with white discharge too. So it is normal. It can be caused by trauma while inserting the vaginal supp. I am on Crinone and get it once in awhile. My dr told me he's not concerned since my labs and u/s look good and to call if I start getting heavy bleeding. Good luck ladies!

I am on my first IVF/ICSI cycle. My ET was last Wednesday (8 days ago). I have been experiencing a range of symptoms that could be perceived as preg symptoms but I'm trying not to analyse every single thing. I'm holding out for our Beta HCG due on Tues next week. This afternoon, when I went to the loo, I had large chunks of Crinone mixed with clumps of dark brown and black grainy stuff. It's my hope that this is related to an implantation bleed, but that the Crinone has been 'blocking' it from coming out (because of its thick consistency etc), and that therefore it is now appearing this co our because it's 'old blood.' Does that even make sense to anyone. As we draw closer to the end of our 2WW, I'm looking for something to hold onto and be hopeful about.

I had my transfer on 29th May and this 2 week wait is agony!  Today for the first time I had the brown, black, salmon cottage cheese and completely flipped!  I dont test until 10th June.  I thouhgt it was all over but am hopeful that all will be ok as most of you who have posted are already pregnant! I so hope I am too!  I thought I saw a little bit of blood so was a bit worried!  So nice to read about people going through the same stuff!
