Susten contains progesterone, and when inserted vaginally, the capsule shell and unabsorbed medication naturally melt and mix with your normal secretions, causing a thick, white, or chalky discharge. This is a normal part of using this medication. However, if you notice itching, burning, soreness, an unpleasant odor, or a change in color (like green or yellow), it could indicate a mild infection like thrush, which is also common in pregnancy. If those symptoms arise, please let your doctor know, but otherwise, this is expected.

Is it normal to have thick white discharge after inserting Susten into the vagina during early pregnancy, or could it be a sign of an infection?
