Brief Answer:
Stay more time on bed. Some part of medicine expels normally.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,

Thanks for writing to us. Followings are my comments:

1) Utrogestan 200 mg contains micronised progesterone as active ingredient. It is a soft white capsule. I suggest you to take rest at least 30 to 45 min after inserting the medicine. It will help to absorb the medicine properly through vaginal mucosa.

2) Some part of medicine may be expelled out as white liquid when you stand up or do some other activity. It is quite common thing. However, you should stay on bed for more time to get effective result.

Hope, I have answered your query. Wish your good health and take care.

For future query, you can directly approach me through

Brief Answer:
You can take orally or Insert deeply inside vagina.

Detailed Answer:
Hello Dear,

Welcome back again.

1) You have to insert the soft capsule deeply inside vagina with little water to dissolve and absorb completely while you are on the bed for at least 1 hr.

If little amount is expelled out from vagina, you have nothing to worry much and it will be effective same like earlier. Most of the medicine will absorb from vaginal mucosa.

2) It can be taken orally. In that case, you have to swallow the capsule with a glass of water and far from meal times. No meal for at least 2 hr.

Hope, it helps for your information. Good luck and take care.

Again at night i put 2 capsules very deeps into vagina until i couldnt find them at all .. Stayed in bed the whole time. Then i slept for 10 hours. When i woke up the next morning and went to the bathroom i still found white stuff coming out of my vagina. Is that the medecine or maybe the wax of the capsule? Please give me a detailed answer as this is an urgent matter for me

Brief Answer:
Mostly wax of the capsule. Don't be worried.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,

Welcome back again.

I think that the expelled part (white stuff) is wax of the capsule because more than 90% of the medicine will be absorbed through vaginal mucosa while you slept for 10 hrs.

Don't be worried much regarding this. Keep using this method (insert deeply inside vagina) to get effective result. It is quite better than taking the medicine orally.

Hope, it helps to clear doubt. Maintain genital hygiene. Good luck.

Also ive had so pregnancy signs like sore breast . Head ach. Lower abdominal pain

Brief Answer:
Too early to confirm. Need to repeat the tests.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,

Welcome back again.

Some pregnancy test kit is MORE sensitive and they can detect very LOW level of hCG, even 4 to 7 days before expected due date.

As you have taken hCG injection and other fertility treatment, I suggest you to repeat the pregnancy test after 7 days or undergo blood test for beta-hCG after 4 days to get the accurate result.

It is too early to confirm the pregnancy. Faint positive is always doubtful and you need to repeat those tests for confirmation.

Hope, it helps for your information. Good luck and take care.
