Vaginal progesterone .... Which brand would you prefer?

I am not here to comment on my serum progesterone level. Which lab tells the correct reading: The lab far far away or the nearby lab? 12 hour after Gestone 50mg injection my serum progesterone level was 33.8 and this was done in Hong Kong.  It appears to my local obgyne that my progesterone is terrible low. My uterine lining is very thin. She said I am at risk of miscarriage. perhaps, she was correct. In this pregnancy, the injection site of Gestone became tender and itchy. Perhaps, my anti progesterone antibodies were acting up. So, what was my progesterone level last week? I was surprised with the lab result. It was 86. Is this value true?

First visit to my local obgyne has changed my medication to : utrogestan oral + crinone + proluton depot 250. I made a nice alibi on my second consult. Oral utrogen makes me dizzy and inserting utrogestan on vaginal route will not expose me to more risk of infection because whether I insert Utrogestan pessary or not, I have to insert Estrofem pessary.  She insisted she doesnt want me to be inserting too many medicines in my vagina.

Which product is more potent Utrogestan 200x 2 / day or Crinone once a day + duphaston oral 10mg x3/day? Why Crinone is used once a day only? In fact, it just contains 90mg of progesterone.

I hate Utrogestan for its sticky slimy discharge. Pee (ammonia) smell became an integral part of me. I dont know if my son's nanny can smell it or not. My panty gets wet more frequent. my panty was drier with crinone. Fewer episodes of smelly vagina.

While I was inserting Estrofem tonight, I felt my clumps in my vagina. I wish I could insert a mini vaccuum cleaner or spoon to scrape of my the vaginal lumps. I digged those vaginal clumps out. Is it advisable to dig out my vaginal clumps. Can the clamps cause vaginal infection? Did anyone experience the same? I choose Utrogestan over Crinone.
