Is Prescribed Dosage Of Susten Compulsory For Frozen Embryo Transfer?

Hi
I just underwent a Frozen embryo transfer on the 10 of December.
My doc advised me Susten Vaginal Tablets 400 mg 4 times a day.
I dont recollect if I have taken the 3rd dose today or not. Will that be a problem? I did day 3 transfer.
Pls help as I am really worried.

thanks,
Hema

Hi Hema,
Thanks for writing to HCM .

It is ok if you have missed one or two doses of susten. Ideally you shouldn't miss but in circumstances it is ok.
No need to worry.

Normally body start secreting progesterone once conception occurs. Susten is progesterone given to help in maintenance of early pregnancy. It increases local progesterone level. Also it prevents early abortions. So if you miss one dose your body will cover up. Just don't miss again and again. Be stress free.

Hope I have been helpful .
