Frequently asked questions
What is Hpc 200mg Capsule?
Hpc 200mg Capsule is a progesterone hormone, extracted from plants, that closely resembles the human hormone. It undergoes micronization, reducing the size of the progesterone particles for enhanced dissolution and absorption. This results in better medication availability within the body and potentially fewer side effects.
What is Hpc 200mg Capsule used to treat?
Hpc 200mg Capsule is prescribed for various conditions, including: * Secondary amenorrhea (lack of menstruation lasting three months or longer in women who previously menstruated.) * Supporting pregnancy and preventing premature labor. * Addressing bleeding disorders before menopause. * It may be used as part of fertility treatments and hormone replacement therapy after menopause. * Relieving symptoms of premenstrual syndrome and painful menstrual bleeding (dysfunctional uterine bleeding).
Can I take Hpc 200mg Capsule every day?
Yes, Hpc 200mg Capsule can be taken daily. It is usually prescribed to be taken once daily in the evening or at bedtime. However, the duration of prescription varies from 10-12 days per cycle to 25 days per month. Your doctor will determine the specific number of days based on your individual health needs.
Does Hpc 200mg Capsule cause weight gain?
Yes, taking Hpc 200mg Capsule may lead to weight gain. This is often due to water retention. However, if you are concerned about this potential side effect, please consult your doctor.
Is Hpc 200mg Capsule safe?
Hpc 200mg Capsule is generally considered safer compared to conventional synthetic progesterone due to its smaller particle size, facilitating easier absorption and potentially reducing side effects like fluid retention, HDL cholesterol reduction, headaches, and mood disturbances.
How is progesterone beneficial for fertility and pregnancy?
Progesterone plays a critical role in both fertility and pregnancy. It is the primary hormone secreted by the ovaries that prepares the uterus for a potential pregnancy and maintains its function. Hpc 200mg Capsule (a natural micronized form of progesterone) is used in infertility treatments to prepare the uterus for pregnancy and potentially prevent abortions. It's also utilized to prevent premature labor.
