It is completely normal to experience some leakage after using Susten 400 (progesterone) vaginal inserts. This discharge is usually just the melted outer capsule shell, and your body rapidly absorbs the active progesterone it needs, so the leakage won't reduce its effectiveness. While progesterone can often be taken orally, switching routes can change how your body processes the medication and may increase side effects like dizziness or drowsiness. I strongly recommend speaking with your doctor before making any changes to ensure your treatment remains safe and effective for you.

Progesterone supplementation, like Susten 300, is very commonly prescribed at 7 weeks of pregnancy, especially for those with a history of miscarriage. Far from increasing the risk of pregnancy loss, progesterone actually helps support and stabilize the uterine lining to help maintain your pregnancy. It is considered safe and is used to protect your baby. Please continue to follow your doctor's specific guidance for your dosage.

It is completely normal to feel a bit anxious while waiting. After finishing your five-day course of Susten 300 (which is progesterone), your period typically starts within 2 to 10 days. Sometimes, it can take up to 14 days for hormone levels to drop and trigger the bleeding. Since your pregnancy test is negative, please try to relax and give your body a few more days to adjust. If your period does not arrive after two full weeks of stopping the medication, I gently recommend reaching out to your doctor for further guidance.

While mild skin sensitivity can occasionally occur with progesterone (Susten), generalized itching is not a typical side effect. In the third trimester, widespread itching?particularly on your palms and soles?can sometimes indicate a pregnancy-related liver condition called intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy. While this is not an emergency, it does warrant a prompt, reassuring evaluation by your obstetrician to ensure you and your baby remain safe and healthy. Please consult your doctor soon so they can run simple tests and help find you some relief.

Susten 200 contains progesterone, a natural hormone vital for pregnancy. After an intrauterine insemination (IUI) procedure, these vaginal tablets are prescribed to help thicken and prepare the uterine lining, making it a welcoming environment for a fertilized egg to implant successfully. It also helps support the early stages of pregnancy. Using it vaginally delivers the hormone directly to the uterus where it is needed most, minimizing body-wide side effects.

Susten 300 contains progesterone, a hormone that helps prepare and support the uterine lining for a pregnancy. Using progesterone after ovulation is a common and generally safe approach to support early pregnancy, especially if you have had a prior miscarriage. However, because timing is critical and dosing must be tailored to your specific cycle, it is very important to discuss this with your gynecologist before starting. They can guide you on the exact timing to ensure it is safe and effective for you.
