Endogest 100 Capsule
Endogest 100 Capsule contains natural micronized Progesterone, a vital hormone for female reproductive health. It is primarily used to treat menstrual irregularities, secondary amenorrhea, and abnormal uterine bleeding caused by hormonal imbalances. In menopausal care, it is a key component of Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), where it helps protect the uterine lining from the effects of estrogen. Additionally, Endogest is frequently prescribed during early pregnancy to support the uterine environment and help prevent threatened miscarriage or preterm labor in women with progesterone insufficiency.
Key Features
- Uses a micronized form of the hormone that is identical to the progesterone naturally produced by the human body.
- Helps restore a regular menstrual rhythm by preparing the uterine lining for a period.
- When used with estrogen in HRT, it prevents the overgrowth of the uterine lining (hyperplasia).
- Provides essential hormonal support to sustain the pregnancy during the first trimester.
- The micronization process allows the hormone to be absorbed more efficiently by the body.
