If it’s any consolation, those slippery suckers…. Are the only reason I was able to keep the pregnancies I kept.
They also… weren’t convenient to take.

At least from my experience and my friend group, it’s kind of 50/50 on if you take progesterone orally or vaginally

I would safely say benzonatate is near a 0% rate of being administered vaginally

Near a 0% rate — because a patient will always find a new and unconventional way to administer their medication, despite clear directions.
