progesterone

Ok so I got these Prometrium capsules and it states on the package insert that these capsules are oral capsule. My OB's direction is to insert it vaginally as a suppository. Im concerned because the capsules outside gel is pretty thick. I just dont want to keep shoving these things in me and it not dissolve. Has anyone used oral capsules as suppository?

hi, i had also been given progesterone capsules called susten( they read oral,vaginal,rectal use).. If your package states only Oral use, I would show them to my doc to confirm if they are good to be taken vaginally.
