I’ve recently heard the phrase “anything that can be taken sublingual can be taken rectally”.

Is this true and can it be applied to estrogen tablets without a shell/coating? Seems like it would bet the swallowing effect from saliva.

And a follow up question, does it need to be jammed in all the way or just past the sphincter muscle?

    estrogen tablets without a shell/coating

    I’m just taking about the generic tablets. Sugar & estrogen squeezed into an oval shape.
