Frequently asked questions
What is Pregeon Soft Gelatin Capsule?
Pregeon Soft Gelatin Capsule is a type of progesterone hormone derived from plants, with properties similar to the human hormone. The capsules undergo micronization, reducing the natural progesterone particle size. This improves dissolution and absorption in the body, resulting in better availability and potentially reduced side effects.
What is Pregeon Soft Gelatin Capsule used to treat?
Pregeon Soft Gelatin Capsule is prescribed for various conditions. It's used to manage secondary amenorrhea (in women who haven't menstruated for three months) and to support pregnancy, prevent preterm labor, and address bleeding disorders that may occur before menopause. It can also be part of fertility treatment or hormone replacement therapy after menopause. It may be utilized to alleviate premenstrual syndrome symptoms and manage painful bleeding, such as in dysfunctional uterine bleeding.
Can I take Pregeon Soft Gelatin Capsule every day?
Yes, Pregeon Soft Gelatin Capsule can be taken daily. The usual dosage is once a day in the evening or bedtime. However, the duration of prescription can vary depending on individual needs and may range from 10-12 days per cycle to 25 days per month. Always follow your doctor's instructions for proper dosage.
Does Pregeon Soft Gelatin Capsule cause weight gain?
Yes, taking Pregeon Soft Gelatin Capsule may lead to weight gain. This is primarily due to water retention and is generally not considered a severe sign. However, if you're experiencing significant weight changes, please consult your doctor as soon as possible.
Is Pregeon Soft Gelatin Capsule safe?
Yes, Pregeon Soft Gelatin Capsule is generally safer than synthetic progesterone, due to its smaller particle size that facilitates better absorption and reduces side effects such as fluid retention, reduced HDL cholesterol levels, headaches, and mood disturbances. Combining Pregeon Soft Gelatin Capsule with estrogen in a combined pill may further minimize weight gain risk.
How is progesterone beneficial for fertility and pregnancy?
Progesterone plays a vital role in both fertility and pregnancy. It's produced naturally by the ovaries and prepares the uterus for implantation and maintains it throughout gestation. Pregeon Soft Gelatin Capsule, a natural micronized form of progesterone, is used to enhance uterine receptivity and prevent abortions in some cases. In pregnancy, it helps support fetal development.
