Aqsusten 50 Injection

Aqsusten 50 Injection

Aqsusten 50 Injection is a prescription hormone medicine from Sun Pharmaceutical Industries that provides progesterone, a natural female hormone essential for reproductive health. Each single-use vial of 2.237 ml contains Progesterone IP 50 mg (22.35 mg/ml) in a water-based solution. It is mainly used to support pregnancy in women undergoing infertility treatment such as IVF, where it prepares and maintains the lining of the uterus for implantation of the embryo. It may also be used to correct progesterone deficiency, regulate the menstrual cycle and as part of hormone therapy. Unlike oily progesterone injections, this aqueous formula can be given either into a muscle or under the skin, which many patients find more comfortable. It is manufactured by Sun Pharma Laboratories Ltd in India.

How It Works

Progesterone acts on the lining of the uterus (endometrium), changing it into a thick, nutrient-rich layer that allows a fertilised egg to implant and grow. It keeps the uterus relaxed and reduces contractions, helping to maintain early pregnancy. In women with low natural progesterone, such as after egg retrieval in IVF, the injection replaces the missing hormone and supports the pregnancy until the placenta takes over.
