Frequently asked questions
What is Eugest 200mg Tablet?
Eugest 200mg Tablet is a type of progesterone hormone that is extracted from plants. It has properties that match human progesterone. This medicine undergoes a process called micronization, which reduces the size of the natural progesterone particles. The smaller particle size enhances its dissolution and absorption, leading to better availability in the body and reduced side effects.
What is Eugest 200mg Tablet used for?
Eugest 200mg Tablet is prescribed to treat various conditions. It is commonly used in women with secondary amenorrhea (no menstruation for 3 months in women who have had their periods before). It can also support pregnancy, prevent premature labor, and treat bleeding disorders that may occur before menopause. It might be part of fertility treatment or used as hormone replacement therapy after menopause. Additionally, it is used to relieve symptoms related to premenstrual syndrome and painful bleeding like dysfunctional uterine bleeding.
Can I take Eugest 200mg Tablet every day?
Yes, Eugest 200mg Tablet can be taken daily. It is usually prescribed once a day in the evening or at bedtime. The duration of prescription may vary, ranging from 10-12 days per month to 25 days a month. However, your doctor will determine the number of days for your specific needs based on your condition.
Does Eugest 200mg Tablet cause weight gain?
Yes, taking Eugest 200mg Tablet may lead to weight gain. The potential weight gain is attributed to fluid retention and might not be a significant concern. However, if you are experiencing significant weight changes that worry you, consult your doctor. Combining Eugest 200mg Tablet with estrogen as a combined pill may reduce the risk of weight gain. However, never begin any hormonal therapy without consulting your healthcare professional.
Is Eugest 200mg Tablet safe?
Eugest 200mg Tablet is generally safer compared to normal synthetic progesterone due to its smaller particle size. This facilitates easier absorption by the body and reduces side effects such as fluid retention, reduction of HDL cholesterol levels, headaches, and mood disturbances.
How is progesterone beneficial for fertility and pregnancy?
Progesterone is a crucial hormone in fertility. It is secreted by the ovaries and plays a key role in preparing the uterus for pregnancy and maintaining it. Eugest 200mg Tablet (natural micronized form of progesterone) is prescribed to address infertility, helping the uterus prepare itself for pregnancy and preventing abortions in some cases. It also helps prevent premature labor.
