I'm currently using Susten intravaginally as per my doctor's instructions, but it seems to be leaking out slowly. Is this something normal, or should I be concerned?

Using Susten intravaginally can sometimes lead to leakage as the capsule dissolves. It is normal for some of the medication to come out. To minimize leakage, you can try lying down for 20-30 minutes after inserting the capsule. If the leakage is excessive or persistent, you can talk to your doctor about possibly adjusting the dosage or trying a different formulation.

I'm really worried about my 15-year-old daughter who has PCOS. She's been on Krimson 35 and Aldactone for 7 months and took Isotret 20 for 3 months. Her periods have become regular, and her pimples have cleared up, but she still has scars. I'm wondering if she can stop her medication now. If we stop Krimson 35, will her periods become irregular again?
