Description

Progesterone Suppository 100 mg is a hormone-based medication commonly used in gynecological and reproductive treatments. It contains progesterone, a naturally occurring female hormone essential for regulating ovulation and menstruation. The suppository form is designed for vaginal administration, allowing for localized absorption with reduced systemic side effects.

This medication is frequently prescribed to support the luteal phase in women undergoing assisted reproductive technologies such as in vitro fertilization (IVF). It helps maintain the endometrial lining, ensuring a favorable environment for embryo implantation. It is also indicated in cases of luteal phase deficiency, threatened miscarriage, or secondary amenorrhea.

Common side effects include vaginal irritation, discharge, and breast tenderness. Less frequent reactions may involve mood changes, dizziness, or fatigue. Patients with a history of hormone-sensitive cancers, thromboembolic disorders, or liver disease should use this medication cautiously under strict medical supervision.
