Frequently asked questions
What is Sugest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule?
Sugest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule is a micronized form of progesterone, a hormone naturally produced in the body. This plant-derived progesterone possesses similar properties to human progesterone. The micronization process reduces the natural progesterone particles' size, enhancing their dissolution and absorption within the body.
What conditions does Sugest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule treat?
Sugest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule is used to address various conditions. It helps women with secondary amenorrhea (lack of menstruation for three months in premenopausal women) and it supports pregnancy, prevents preterm labor, and treats bleeding disorders that may occur before menopause. This medication can be utilized in fertility treatments and as hormone replacement therapy after menopause. It also alleviates symptoms associated with premenstrual syndrome and painful menstrual cycles such as dysfunctional uterine bleeding.
Can I take Sugest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule every day?
Yes, Sugest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule can be taken daily. It is typically prescribed for once-daily usage in the evening or bedtime. The duration of prescription may vary from 10 to 12 days per cycle to 25 days per month. However, your doctor will provide a specific dosage and schedule based on your health condition.
Does Sugest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule cause weight gain?
Yes, taking Sugest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule may lead to temporary weight gain. This can be due to water retention and is generally not a major concern. However, if you experience any unusual weight gain that worries you, it's crucial to consult your doctor immediately.
Is Sugest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule safe?
Yes, Sugest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule is considered safer than conventional synthetic progesterone. Its smaller size facilitates easier absorption within the body and reduces side effects such as fluid retention, reduced high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels, headaches, and mood disturbances.
How does progesterone benefit fertility and pregnancy?
Progesterone is a vital hormone crucial for both fertility and pregnancy. It helps prepare the uterus for implantation and maintain it throughout gestation. Sugest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule (micronized form of plant-derived progesterone) is prescribed to address infertility, support the uterus's ability to prepare for pregnancy, and prevent abortions in some cases. It also serves to prevent preterm labor.
