What is Susten 100 mg Capsule?

Susten 100 mg capsule is a soft gelatin capsule containing natural progesterone. It can be taken orally or used vaginally, depending on what your doctor prescribes. One of the most commonly prescribed progesterone capsules in fertility and hormone treatment.

What Does it Contain?

The active ingredient is progesterone 100 mg. This is natural progesterone, not a synthetic version. It makes it easier for the body to absorb into the blood.

What is it Used For?

It is also used in hormone replacement therapy. Irregular or absent menstrual cycles are another reason your doctor may recommend it.

Covers both fertility support and menopause-related hormone management.

How Does it Work?

Progesterone is a natural female hormone produced in the ovaries after ovulation. Susten 100 mg capsule supplements your body's own progesterone levels. This helps prepare and maintain the uterine lining so a pregnancy can continue. It also signals the body to keep the uterine environment stable during early pregnancy.

When Should I Take it?

Most doctors prescribe it at bedtime, especially when taken orally. Progesterone can cause drowsiness shortly after the capsule is absorbed. Taking it at night helps reduce daytime sleepiness. Vaginal use may follow a different schedule, so always follow your doctor's specific instruction.
