Also TMI warning...
Thanks to progesterone suppositories for being SO GROSS. Even though I wear a pad, it's not comfortable to leak all the time... Sometimes I'll suddenly run to the bathroom to wipe up, and DH has learned what's going on. As of last night, my new nickname is Progesterone Pants.

I take mine at night before bed. I will still have a little progesterone pants the next day, but not to bad.
I thought maybe I was even getting a yeast infection or something at one point. I am not used to being so creamy down there after I O.
