WHAT CRINONE IS USED FOR
Crinone is used to supplement
progesterone in women who have
luteal phase defect. Crinone is also
used to supplement or replace your
own natural progesterone in Assisted
Reproductive Technology procedures
(eg IVF). Your doctor may have
prescribed Crinone for another
purpose. Ask your doctor if you have
any questions why Crinone has been
prescribed for you.
HOW CRINONE WORKS
Crinone is a vaginal gel that contains
natural progesterone.
Progesterone is a hormone that is
produced by the ovaries during the
second half of the menstrual cycle.
It is an essential hormone for
preparing the uterus (womb) for
pregnancy and on-going support of
pregnancy.
The lack of normal progesterone
production by the ovaries in the
second half of the menstrual cycle is
called luteal phase defect. Women
who have this defect may have
difficulties in becoming pregnant and
may have a higher risk of miscarriage.
