Frequently asked questions
What is Suregest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule?
Suregest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule is a progesterone hormone derived from plants, but its properties closely match human progesterone. It undergoes micronization, reducing the natural progesterone particles' size for improved dissolution and absorption in the body. This enhances availability of Suregest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule for better body utilization with reduced side effects.
What is Suregest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule used to treat?
Suregest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule is prescribed for various conditions. It's used for women experiencing secondary amenorrhea (no menstruation for at least three months) and for supporting pregnancy, preventing premature labor, and treating bleeding disorders before menopause. It can be part of fertility treatment and given as hormone replacement therapy after menopause. Additionally, it may relieve premenstrual syndrome symptoms and treat painful, dysfunctional uterine bleeding.
Can I take Suregest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule every day?
Yes, Suregest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule can be taken daily. It's usually prescribed once daily in the evening or at bedtime. However, your doctor will determine the duration of treatment, which may range from 10-12 days a month to 25 days a month. Your doctor will recommend the appropriate dosage based on your individual health condition.
Does Suregest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule cause weight gain?
Yes, taking Suregest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule may cause weight gain. This is likely due to water retention and shouldn't be considered a serious concern unless it significantly impacts your well-being. If you experience significant weight gain that worries you, please consult your doctor.
Is Suregest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule safe?
Suregest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule is generally safer than traditional synthetic progesterone due to its reduced size and increased absorption. This allows for easier body utilization, minimizing side effects such as fluid retention, reduced HDL cholesterol levels, headaches, and mood disturbances.
How is progesterone beneficial for fertility and pregnancy?
Progesterone plays a crucial role in both fertility and pregnancy. It's the hormone secreted by the ovaries that prepares the uterus for implantation and maintains it throughout pregnancy. Suregest 200 Soft Gelatin Capsule, in its natural micronized form, helps support uterine readiness for pregnancy and may prevent early abortion in certain cases. Its use also aids in preventing preterm labor.
