Fish Oil Consumption

Hello Mummies! My gynae prescribed me with Fish Oil capsules. I personally hate swallowing big pills / capsules. I can’t imagine having to swallow it everyday without gagging/vomiting. I remember my parents used to do that for me when I was a kid. However, my husband said that I should just swallow it as the capsule is designed to dissolve at the “right track” in your body. Any idea if it is ok to cut open the capsule and just swallow the fish oil liquid? #firsttimemom #fishoil

It is okay to cut open the capsule but would you be able to stand the smell and taste of the fish oil is another question. I hate swallowing big pills too. My gynae prescribed fish oil soft gel for me. I requested for a mini soft gel from the pharmacist. Still hard to swallow but on a brighter side, it’s not as scary as the bigger soft gel.

From what I understand, you don’t need to be concerned about the yellow discharge. However if there’s blood or brown discharge you should call your gynae if the gynae haven’t already prescribed utrogestan or any medication for bleeding yet.
