If you are taking an oral progesterone tablet, it is important to note that gastric sleeve surgery may affect the absorption of the medication, as the stomach's capacity to hold and release food is reduced. It's important to talk to your surgeon and your pharmacist to ensure that you are taking the appropriate dosage and that it is still effective after the surgery.

You may want to consider taking the tablet with a small amount of liquid, and taking it at least 30 minutes to 1 hour before or after meals. This can help ensure that the tablet is not affected by the reduced stomach capacity and will be fully absorbed.

It's also important to note that some tablets may not be able to be crushed or split, so you should always check with your pharmacist or doctor before doing so.

It's always a good idea to talk to your pharmacist or doctor about your medication regimen before and after the surgery to make sure that you are taking the appropriate dosage and that it is still effective after the surgery.
