Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Susten is a branded progesterone supplement prescribed during first trimester of pregnancy to avoid miscarriage due to lack of progesterone in the body.
You should avoid toilet after taking susten from rectum atleast for 30 minutes for its proper absorption
If you have some problem then you can take oral preparation after consulting your doctor..
