Is CRINONE safe in pregnancy?

Is CRINONE safe in pregnancy?

CRINONE 8% is also used as part of a program for women who are undergoing fertility treatments to get pregnant. Progesterone is one of the hormones that helps to prepare the lining of your uterus so that it is ready to receive and nourish a fertilized egg and to continue a pregnancy. If you are undergoing ART treatment and your doctor has determined your body does not produce enough progesterone on its own, Crinone may be prescribed to increase your progesterone. If pregnancy occurs, CRINONE may be supplemented for 10-12 weeks until
production of progesterone by the placenta is adequate.
