Frequently asked questions
What is Angest 200mg Soft Gelatin Capsule?
Angest 200mg Soft Gelatin Capsule is a type of progesterone hormone that is derived from plants. It mimics the human progesterone's properties after undergoing micronization, a process that reduces its particle size. This smaller size enhances its dissolution and absorption in the body, improving availability and potentially decreasing side effects.
What is Angest 200mg Soft Gelatin Capsule used to treat?
Angest 200mg Soft Gelatin Capsule is prescribed for various conditions. It is used for women with secondary amenorrhea (absence of menstruation for three months or longer in women who have had menstrual cycles previously). It also aids in pregnancy support, prevents premature labor, and treats bleeding disorders that may occur before menopause. It can be part of fertility treatments and used as hormone replacement therapy after menopause. The medication may also help with premenstrual syndrome symptoms and painful bleeding associated with dysfunctional uterine bleeding.
Can I take Angest 200mg Soft Gelatin Capsule every day?
Yes, Angest 200mg Soft Gelatin Capsule can be taken daily. It is typically taken once daily in the evening or at bedtime. The duration of treatment may vary from 10 to 12 days per month to 25 days per month. Your doctor will determine the appropriate dosage for your specific condition based on your health status.
Does Angest 200mg Soft Gelatin Capsule cause weight gain?
Yes, taking Angest 200mg Soft Gelatin Capsule can potentially lead to weight gain. This is due to water retention and may not be significant. If you are concerned about weight gain, please consult your doctor as soon as possible.
Is Angest 200mg Soft Gelatin Capsule safe?
Angest 200mg Soft Gelatin Capsule is considered safer compared to conventional synthetic progesterone. Its smaller particle size allows for easier absorption in the body, leading to reduced side effects like fluid retention, decreased HDL cholesterol levels, headaches, and mood disturbances.
How does progesterone benefit fertility and pregnancy?
Progesterone plays a crucial role in both fertility and pregnancy. It is produced by the ovaries and prepares the uterus for implantation and maintains its structure during pregnancy. Angest 200mg Soft Gelatin Capsule (natural micronized form of progesterone) aids in preparing the uterus for pregnancy, reducing abortion risk, and preventing premature labor.
