EPO Orally and Vaginally?

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
So the recommended dosage for my EPO is three capsules per day with food. I am SO EXCITED to meet this baby and really, REALLY want to insert and EPO vaginally each night in addition to the three I take orally, but I have no idea if that's no big deal like taking an extra Tylenol or dangerous like taking too much morphine. Does anyone know how much EPO is too much? Also, how do I go about checking to see if my particular brand of EPO is safe to insert vaginally? I'm generally pretty picky about what/who is allowed inside my vaginal canal and I don't want to start throwing that caution to the wind now.

As I type this, I realize that since I'm not all that uncomfortable, pretty darn healthy, and working from home, I have no real reason to try to rush things along. I just want to hold her so badly! And I "know" she's ready (without any sort of concrete evidence or proof) and I'm completely sure that's she's healthy and ready to go. *sigh* I'm probably jinxing myself to be pregnant forever entertaining all these thoughts of her coming soon.

I did both will have to check MG on my EPO to see how much I was taking, but I think they were 1300 mg and was taking orally 2x daily and inserting every other day post this on the preg board you will get faster/ more responses GL

I took 1000 by mouth and 2000 vaginally.

I guess I hadn't even thought about it. I remember my midwife last time telling me to take 2 orally and 2 vaginally daily. I've been doing the vaginally but have forgotten about the orally. I have no idea how many mg mine are though.

I'm currently doing 500mg vaginally 3x day...that is what my midwife advised. If you can get the EPO on the cervix, it is much more effective than orally.
