Progest 100 Mg 24 Capsules

Progest 100 Mg 24 Capsules

Description:

Progest 100 mg 24 capsules is a prescription hormonal medicine containing natural micronized progesterone. It is used for progesterone supplementation or replacement in women with documented progesterone deficiency, particularly as part of Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) protocols, and for various gynecological and menopausal indications. These oral/vaginal capsules support the normal function of the endometrium, help regulate the menstrual cycle, and provide endometrial protection in women receiving estrogen therapy. Progest 100 mg is formulated for use under medical supervision to help restore hormonal balance and support fertility and reproductive health.

Indications:

• Progesterone supplementation or replacement as part of Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) treatment in infertile women with progesterone deficiency.
• Treatment of secondary amenorrhea (absence of menstrual periods in women who previously had regular cycles) due to progesterone deficiency.
• Reduction of the incidence of endometrial hyperplasia and the associated risk of endometrial carcinoma in postmenopausal women receiving estrogen replacement therapy (as part of hormone replacement therapy, HRT).
• Treatment of abnormal uterine bleeding due to hormonal imbalance in the absence of organic pathology such as fibroids or uterine cancer.
• Support of the luteal phase in women undergoing fertility treatment, as directed by a fertility specialist.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Progesterone (micronized) – 100 mg per capsule.
• Excipients: The full list of inactive ingredients (capsule shell components, oils, stabilizers) is not available in the provided information. Please refer to the official package insert for complete excipient details.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Use only as prescribed by a gynecologist, fertility specialist, or healthcare professional experienced in hormonal therapy.
• Route of administration: Oral or vaginal, as directed by the physician. Progest 100 mg capsules are designed for both oral and vaginal use.
• Typical oral use (general guidance, may vary by indication): The dose and duration are individualized. Common regimens for secondary amenorrhea or abnormal uterine bleeding may involve 100–200 mg daily for a specific number of days in the menstrual cycle. Exact dosing must be determined by the doctor.
• Typical vaginal use in ART / luteal support: The dose, frequency (often once or multiple times daily), and duration (e.g., from ovulation or embryo transfer until a specified gestational week) are determined by the fertility specialist.
• Capsules taken orally should generally be swallowed whole with a glass of water. They may be taken with or without food, depending on physician advice.
• For vaginal use, the capsule is inserted deep into the vagina, preferably in the lying position, following the doctor’s instructions for timing and frequency.
• Do not change the dose, route, or duration of treatment without consulting your doctor.
• If a dose is missed, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one. Contact your doctor if multiple doses are missed, especially during fertility treatment.

Clinical Benefits:

• Provides essential progesterone supplementation in women with documented deficiency, supporting normal endometrial development and menstrual cycle regulation.
• Helps support implantation and early pregnancy maintenance as part of ART protocols and luteal phase support, when prescribed by a fertility specialist.
• Reduces the risk of endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial carcinoma in postmenopausal women receiving estrogen replacement therapy by counterbalancing estrogen’s proliferative effect on the endometrium.
• Helps control abnormal uterine bleeding due to hormonal imbalance when no structural pathology (such as fibroids or cancer) is present.
• Offers flexible administration (oral or vaginal) to optimize tolerability and effectiveness according to clinical need.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Contraindicated in known or suspected pregnancy unless specifically prescribed for luteal support or ART by a specialist, and in known or suspected breast or genital tract malignancy unless the prescriber decides otherwise.
• Contraindicated in undiagnosed vaginal bleeding, active or history of thromboembolic disorders (e.g., deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism), severe liver dysfunction or liver disease, and known hypersensitivity to progesterone or any component of the product.
• Use with extreme caution in patients with a history of depression, migraine, epilepsy, asthma, diabetes, hypertension, or cardiovascular disease; close medical monitoring is recommended.
• Hormonal therapy may increase the risk of thromboembolic events, particularly in women with additional risk factors (e.g., smoking, obesity, prolonged immobilization). Inform your doctor about all risk factors before starting treatment.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant, nursing, planning pregnancy, taking other hormonal medications (e.g., estrogens, combined oral contraceptives), or if you have medical conditions such as liver disease, kidney disease, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or a history of hormone-sensitive cancers.
• Not intended for self-medication or over-the-counter use. Use only under medical supervision.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease without proper medical evaluation and prescription.
