My wife's doctor has prescribed her to take gestofit 200 from 18th day (twice a day) but it had not mentioned whether it should be taken orally or vaginally?

Please advise how it shall be efffective?

Two months ago she had used susten vaginally, but it effected in coming mensus, which came eight days before the time.

 How to use gestofit 200?

Hi Raj Any progesterone when first using it effects the cycle, which can be shortened or lengthened. It's a question of persevering through this, it does comes right about about 2-3 cycles. So the Gestofilt will have the same effect. Oral progesterone is the least effective Delivery system. So your wife will get the full benefit of the progesterone if she uses the capsule vaginally, or she can open it and rub the oil on to her skin. Either means is good, as the vagina and skin absorb it well. We do have more info on How to use progesterone. Please read through this page, it explains how much should be used and when. Take care Wray

 How to Use Gestofit 300
by: HS - hyd

My wife was suggested to take Gestofit 300 SR from day 21, I could only find Gestofit 300 from the medical shops, Is there a difference between them? And also should it be taken orally or vaginally?

Please respond?

Hi HS I can't give you an answer about the two Gestofits, I suggest you ask your wife's doctor. I would always recommend using it vaginally, as most of the progesterone is destroyed when taken. We do have more info on our page on Delivery systems. Take care Wray

Hi there Yes I thought he would! She won't get the full benefit of the progesterone, you can always take him the papers on the delivery systems page. Take care Wray
