Vaginal progesterone how far do I stick it up there?

Question

Ok so I recently had to have an emergency cerclage placed and my new ob put me on vaginal progesterone to try and help with my cervix and contractions. I’m about to do my first dose but I’m sitting here now and I’m like um how far do I stick it up there?

Answer

I had to do this and actually got applicators off amazon. I couldn’t handle doing it myself for 12 weeks and worrying if I got it up far enough. And yes, definitely insert at night

Answer

I had to use it for the first 12 weeks and I just pushed it up as far as I could with my index finger 🤷‍♀️ Also, I did it before bed so leakage was minimal 😅

Answer

From what I read you want your finger in up to the knuckle. It’s definitely a crazy feeling!  Basically as far as you can. It shouldn’t be painful but it’s definitely strange the first few times. Been doing it two weeks and it never gets less weird but hopefully worth it!
