Frequently asked questions
What is Ferliter 100mg Capsule?
Ferliter 100mg Capsule is a type of progesterone hormone derived from plants, with properties similar to human progesterone. It undergoes micronization, which reduces the size of the natural progesterone particles. This creates smaller particles that enhance dissolution and absorption within the body, improving availability and potentially decreasing side effects.
What is Ferliter 100mg Capsule used for?
Ferliter 100mg Capsule is prescribed for various conditions. It is used to treat secondary amenorrhea (no menstruation for 3 months in women with prior menstrual cycles). It can also support pregnancy, prevent premature labor, and address bleeding disorders that may occur before menopause. It may be utilized as part of fertility treatment or as hormone replacement therapy after menopause. Additionally, it relieves symptoms associated with premenstrual syndrome and dysfunctional uterine bleeding.
Can I take Ferliter 100mg Capsule every day?
Yes, Ferliter 100mg Capsule can be taken daily. It is typically prescribed to be taken once daily in the evening or at bedtime. The duration of prescription may vary from 10-12 days per month to 25 days per month. However, your doctor will determine the number of days for your individual prescription based on your health.
Does Ferliter 100mg Capsule cause weight gain?
Yes, taking Ferliter 100mg Capsule may lead to weight gain. This can be due to water retention, and it's not always a significant issue. If you have concerns about your weight gain, please consult your doctor as soon as possible. The risk of weight gain is generally less when combined with estrogen in the form of a combined pill.
Is Ferliter 100mg Capsule safe?
Ferliter 100mg Capsule offers safety compared to conventional synthetic progesterone. Its smaller particle size facilitates easier body absorption and reduces side effects such as fluid retention, low HDL cholesterol levels, headaches, and mood disturbance.
How is progesterone beneficial for fertility and pregnancy?
Progesterone plays a crucial role in fertility and pregnancy. It's the hormone secreted by the ovaries that prepares the uterus for pregnancy and maintains it. Ferliter 100mg Capsule, containing micronized progesterone, assists in preparing the uterus for conception and potentially prevents abortions in some cases. It is also used to prevent premature labor.
