Frequently asked questions
What is Nidagen 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule?

The micronization process reduces the size of the natural progesterone particles, enhancing its dissolution and absorption, which provides better availability in the body and reduces side effects.
What is Nidagen 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule used to treat?
Nidagen 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule is used to treat various disorders, including secondary amenorrhea, support pregnancy, prevent premature labor, treat bleeding disorders before menopause, as part of fertility treatment, and as hormone replacement therapy after menopause.

Does Nidagen 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule cause weight gain?
Yes, taking Nidagen 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule may cause weight gain due to water retention. However, this is generally not a serious concern.
