Gestone Injection

Gestone 100mg Injection

Gestone 100mg Injection is a prescription hormone injection marketed by Ferring Pharmaceuticals that provides progesterone, a natural female hormone essential for reproductive health. Each 2 ml ampoule contains Progesterone IP 100 mg (50 mg per ml) in an oily base for intramuscular use. It is widely used to support the lining of the womb during fertility treatments such as IVF, to help maintain early pregnancy in women with low progesterone, and as part of hormone therapy for menstrual disorders. Your doctor may advise continuing the injections for a period after pregnancy is confirmed.

How It Works

Progesterone prepares the inner lining of the uterus (endometrium) to receive and nourish a fertilised egg. It thickens and stabilises the lining, relaxes the muscles of the womb and helps prevent early contractions, creating a supportive environment for the pregnancy to develop. When the body does not make enough progesterone naturally, as is common during assisted reproduction, the injection replaces it directly and helps restore normal hormone balance.
