Frequently asked questions
What is Gesrone-SR Tablet?
Gesrone-SR Tablet contains a type of progesterone extracted from plants, which has properties similar to human progesterone. It undergoes micronization, reducing the particle size of progesterone for enhanced dissolution and absorption within the body. This results in improved bioavailability and reduced side effects.
What is Gesrone-SR Tablet used to treat?
Gesrone-SR Tablet is prescribed to manage various conditions, including: * Secondary amenorrhea (lack of menstruation lasting for three months or more in women who previously experienced periods). * Support during pregnancy. * Prevention of premature labor. * Treatment of bleeding disorders that may occur before menopause. * Part of fertility treatment. * Hormone replacement therapy after menopause. * Relief from symptoms associated with premenstrual syndrome and painful uterine bleeding.
Can I take Gesrone-SR Tablet every day?
Yes, Gesrone-SR Tablet can be taken daily. It is typically prescribed once daily in the evening or at bedtime. The duration of your treatment may vary from 10 to 12 days per cycle to 25 days per month. Your doctor will determine the specific number of days based on your individual health condition.
Does Gesrone-SR Tablet cause weight gain?
Yes, taking Gesrone-SR Tablet may lead to weight gain. The increase in weight could be due to fluid retention, and it is not usually a serious concern. However, if you are experiencing significant weight changes that worry you, please consult your doctor immediately.
Is Gesrone-SR Tablet safe?
Yes, Gesrone-SR Tablet is generally safer than conventional synthetic progesterone because its smaller particle size facilitates better absorption within the body, reducing side effects like fluid retention, reduction of HDL cholesterol levels, headaches, and mood disturbances. When combined with estrogen in a combined pill form, the risk of weight gain may be further reduced.
How is progesterone beneficial for fertility and pregnancy?
Progesterone plays a critical role in both fertility and pregnancy. As an ovarian hormone, it prepares the uterus for implantation and helps maintain it throughout pregnancy. Gesrone-SR Tablet (in its natural, micronized form) is used as medicine to help support the uterus during preparation for pregnancy and to prevent abortions in some cases. It can also be used to prevent premature labor.
