Progesterone Suppositories Question

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
I just found out I am pregnant (4 weeks). I am starting progesterone suppositories today. Does anyone know how long they take to absorb once inserted? When I went to the bathroom there were lots of bubbles in the toilet water. In the mornings it seems I have to eliminate quite often and I was worried about losing the progesterone before fully absorbed.

I was on the supps for 2 pgs. I never felt like they completely dissolved. I could put one in at night, sleep for 8 hours and still have ick in the toilet the next morning. They told me to wait at least 20-30 minutes after doing the morning one but I would usually wait and hour and part of it would still drop in the toilet after. So, what you're seeing is totally normal. I just always layed down in the morning as long as I could but didn't panic if it hadn't completely absorbed.

I was told to lay down for half an hour with them. They are terribly messy, but I hope they work for you. I didn't absorb them well and ended up on injections for my previous and current pregnancies. Most women do absorb them well, so do not worry - I just have trouble being normal
