inserting prometrium....

having a little issue during the day with gel cap sliding out (or part of it sliding out) when I am active- or it falling into the toilet.  hope this is not tmi! I try to insert it as close to my cervix as I can.  The coating is slick.  I am concerned I am not getting enough progesterone into my system.  Any suggestions.

My RE said that I should lay flat for 15 minutes after insertion...it worked.

Go back to the oil.  I know the shots are not good.  I would defentily ask them to check your progesterone levels when you go back.  Keep in mind that these inserts do not usually register in your blood.
