Opinion only: Progesterone suppositories are usually applied twice a day, 15-17 days before menstruation commences. In the case of a vaginal infection, then it's applied rectally. In general, progesterone suppositories dissolve on their own within an hour.

Would you have problems with bleeding if you have low progesterone?
I started havng really bad cramps and a little brownish discharge. My doctor performed a series of tests and it turned out that my progesterone was low, 15.4. Then,my doctor put me on prgesterone vaginal suppositories. I go back next week to have my progesterone monitored.The answer is definitely YES! I had PCOS for many years because I had almost no Progesterone in my system. I use to miss periods for 4 - 6 months before I came on again. What bothers me is that your doc put you on Progesterone Vaginal Suppositories. This is not natural at all. What I would suggest is that you try Naturone which is a 100% natural cream. I started using this cream 2 months ago, and got a full period in less than two weeks after that. You can order this cream at www.naturone.com. There you will find all the information you need. Trust me, after 14 years of PCOS, this is the only product that works.I agree that it could be an issue with low progesterone. I also have PCOS and low progesterone with all my pregnancies. However, I think your doctor did the right thing by giving you the vaginal suppositories. I used them with my first successful pregnancy. The ones my doctor prescribed were very natural. It was pure progesterone and glycerin to give the progesterone their solid form. The suppositories are much better than the synthetic pills or gels that are inserted vaginally. Stay with the suppositories. It puts the progesterone right where it needs to be. I also had the same kind of spotting.
Is Bleeding after inserting a progesterone suppository normal?
Spotting while on progesterone suppositories is considered normal unless you experience heavy bleeding or is accompanied with cramping. If the spotting does not subside within a few days or you experience any other symptoms you should notify your doctor.
You have 8.5 progesterone level at 5 weeks pregnancy you have been put on Progesterone supplement Can you carry a full term pregnancy with a progesterone supplement?
It's very promising. You should be given progesterone supplements in the form of vaginal suppositories, which is suppose to be the most effective method. (Other options include oral pills or by injection.) Make sure your HCG and progesterone blood levels are monitored every two days to be certain a healthy doubling of HCG is occurring, and also to adjust the progesterone dose accordingly.
Is it ok if your progesterone level decreases but your hcg still doubles during early pregnancy?
No, I don't believe it's "okay." While the hcg doubling indicates the fetus may be healthy, your body not producing enough progesterone could cause a miscarriage. If your progesterone levels are falling, speak with your doctor or midwife immediately about going on progesterone supplements, namely in the form of vaginal suppositories. Once you reach the twelve week mark, the placenta takes over the production of progesterone, no longer relying on your ovaries to do so.
What is the pronunciation of progesterone?
It is pronounced pro-JESS-tair-own.
Does progesterone vaginal suppositories need to be refrigerated?
Yes, not sure why but I think it has something to doing with them being compounded. The doc and pharmacist always remind me and there is a huge sticker that says they need to be, so it must be pretty important to keep them chilled.
During which weeks of pregnancy should progesterone suppositories be used in the event of low levels?
Most doctors agree that if used for help in your body forming the placenta, they're not needed past 10 weeks. Some may keep you on until 12 weeks for mental assurance. Progesterone helps form the sack during the first trimester but once it is formed, your body will take over.
