Quick Tips
Susten 100mg Tablet VT helps increase your chances of getting pregnant. It prepares the lining of your uterus to receive and nourish a fertilized egg. If you become pregnant, it can be used for another 10 to 12 weeks until your progesterone levels are high enough. It also helps regulate menstrual cycle in women who do not have a regular period due to a decrease in the hormone progesterone. It exposes your body to less hormone invasion compared to pills or injections thereby preventing various gastric side effects. Do not use tampons or other vaginal products for at least 6 hours before and after using Susten 100mg Tablet VT.
