I usually lodge it high enough that this isn’t an issue, but once right after putting it in, I didn’t put it far enough in and I think I maybe farted and it fell out 😭 That was embarrassing to me, but it was an unusual case.
I’m most worried about it coming out after the capsule has dissolved, you can’t really recover it at that point.
However, I also seem to fart more after putting it in, I suspect because pushing a finger in there disrupts things. So I would just say don’t worry about it 😅
oh, I had another prog pill fall out - it wasn’t from flatulence. Right after putting it in I guess my position put a lot of pressure on that region and it just pushed its way out, despite being far enough up. I think it sorta followed the finger out.
tmi details on how I fixed it
What I found helps is after placing, before pulling the finger out, to sorta pinch the canal closed with my other hand (from the outside of the body, by just pressing on my butt) - this allows removing the finger without creating a path for the pill to follow out, lol.
This is only a problem when the sphincter is a bit relaxed and when the position I’m in puts pressure on that region. So this isn’t an issue I have most days, but it’s happened twice now.

@dandelion Gotcha, funny that we have a similar experience with disruption 🤣.
I now think of you at night when passing gas 😆 #awkward
@dandelion BWHAHAHAHAHAHAH
