Really? A round pill? Round is not a shape designed to go down easily. It gets stuck 9 out of ten times, forcing me to guzzle water to get it down. **grumblemutter**

I know! Started it myself last week and i choke half the time. Try swallowing water first or even putting the water in before the pill. I thought spiro annoyed me...

I took a generic micronized progesterone that is an oval gel cap, perhaps a search into different brands is in order?

I do the generic micronised for Prometrium. It's a perfectly round, little pink pill. Annoying!!

On the plus side the euphoria and lightheadedness seems to have stopped but it does still make me drowsy.

Can they be sour gummy bears. Please pretty please with a cherry on top?

Lifetime of taking tablets here. When you're starting out place it as far back as you can use something fizzy to swallow, the bubbles are your friends. Mary Poppins was right, "A spoon full of sugar makes the medicine go down. "

Nowadays its five or six different tablets in my hand. All in the mouth at once small mouthful of water. "Now that's out of the way what's next"
Do not fear those who have nothing left to lose, fear those who are prepared to lose it all

I had the same problem at first but no more. Guess I just figured out how to do it so it doesn't get stuck. Became a pro! Practice makes perfect.  ;D

Plus side? LOL. I love that effect, LOVE it! I still experience it and don't want it to ever stop, it's like being drunk.  :angel:

Yes, exactly why I'm glad it's not happening. Drunken nursing is not a good thing. I like feeling good but I'm not willing to risk making a mistake with a patient because of a hormone high.
