What is Cimgest-SR 200 Tablet used for?
Cimgest-SR 200 Tablet is prescribed to treat various conditions: it helps manage secondary amenorrhea (lack of menstruation in women who have had periods before) by restoring normal menstrual cycles. It is also used to support pregnancy, prevent premature labor, and treat bleeding disorders that may occur before menopause.
