What Is Susten Vaginal Gel?
Susten Vaginal Gel is a natural progesterone vaginal gel at 8% concentration, delivered by single-use applicator sachet. The vaginal route achieves high local uterine concentration by preferential uterine uptake (the “first uterine pass” effect) while delivering less drug systemically — reducing drowsiness and GI side effects vs oral progesterone. Manufactured by Sun Pharma.
Genitale herpes (eerste episode):
- Luteal phase support in IVF cycles: 90 mg gel daily starting at embryo transfer, continued through week 10–12 of confirmed pregnancy.
- Endometrial preparation for frozen embryo transfer (FET): programmed cycles using estradiol + vaginal progesterone.
- Threatened miscarriage in women with prior recurrent loss (PRISM trial subgroup with active bleeding and ≥3 prior miscarriages).
- Secondary amenorrhoea — off-label.
- Progesterone-deficient luteal phase in natural conception attempts — selected cases.
Hoe aan te brengen
- Wash hands. Twist off the cap of the single-use applicator. Lie on your back.
- Insert the applicator into the vagina and squeeze the body to expel the gel. Discard the applicator.
- IVF/FET luteal support: 90 mg daily (one applicator) starting at embryo transfer; continue through week 10–12 of confirmed pregnancy.
- Best timing: same time daily, at bedtime is common — reduces leakage from upright activity.
- Some leakage is normal; use a panty liner. Do not douche.
- Avoid intercourse immediately after application; wait 6+ hours for best retention.
Vaginal vs Oral vs IM Progesterone
- Vaginal (this product): high uterine delivery, less drowsiness, convenient self-administration, some leakage.
- Oral micronized: convenient, sleep benefit, but low bioavailability and more GI effects.
- IM (susten-injection): highest and most reliable uterine levels, but painful injection site lumps.
Most IVF clinics use vaginal or IM progesterone for luteal support. Choice depends on convenience, cost, patient preference, and clinic protocol.
Bijwerkingen
Vaak voorkomend: vaginal discharge, leakage, mild burning at insertion, breast tenderness, breakthrough bleeding or spotting.
Minder vaak: headache, fatigue (less than oral), abdominal cramping.
Zeldzaam: allergic reaction, cholestasis.

Veelgestelde vragen
How long does leakage last?
Leakage for a few hours after application is normal. Use a panty liner. Applying at bedtime minimises visible leakage.
Can I use a tampon with Susten Vaginal Gel?
No — a tampon absorbs the drug. Use panty liners.
When do I stop during pregnancy?
Typically around week 10–12, when the placenta takes over progesterone production. Exact timing per your fertility specialist.
Is vaginal progesterone the same as oral?
Same molecule but different delivery. Vaginal achieves higher uterine concentration with less systemic exposure — better tolerated for daily use in luteal support.
Can I have intercourse while using Susten Vaginal Gel?
Yes, but avoid in the 6 hours after application to allow proper absorption.
Does vaginal progesterone work as well as IM?
Yes — modern IVF trials show comparable pregnancy rates with vaginal vs IM progesterone. Vaginal is generally better tolerated (no painful injections).
Wat als ik een dosis vergeet?
Apply as soon as you remember; continue normal schedule. Do not double-dose. Contact your fertility clinic for missed-dose protocol in IVF cycles — consistency matters for implantation.
Can my partner absorb progesterone from contact?
Minor exposure possible via vaginal secretions during intercourse. Not clinically significant at standard doses.
