Frequently asked questions
What is Corpogest 200mg Tablet?
Corpogest 200mg Tablet is a type of progesterone hormone that is extracted from plants, but its properties are similar to the human progesterone hormone. This medicine undergoes a process called micronization, which reduces the size of the natural progesterone particles. The smaller size of these particles enhances their dissolution and absorption in the body, improving availability and potentially decreasing side effects.
What is Corpogest 200mg Tablet used to treat?
Corpogest 200mg Tablet is used to treat several conditions. It is prescribed to women experiencing secondary amenorrhea (absence of menstruation for three months or longer after having had periods before). It can be used to support pregnancy, prevent preterm labor, and manage bleeding disorders that may occur before menopause. It might also be a part of fertility treatments and used in hormone replacement therapy after menopause.

Does Corpogest 200mg Tablet cause weight gain?
