Product Introduction
Divagest SR 300 mg Tablet contains progesterone, a key hormone involved in regulating the female reproductive system and the menstrual cycle. Normally, progesterone is produced by the ovaries after ovulation, while during pregnancy it is produced by the placenta, and in smaller amounts by the adrenal glands. This medicine acts as a synthetic form of progesterone, replicating its natural effects in the body.
It is commonly prescribed as part of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in menopausal women and for managing irregular menstrual cycles.
This medication should not be used in individuals who are allergic to progesterone or any of its ingredients. It is also not recommended for patients with liver disease, hormone-sensitive cancers such as breast or liver cancer, a history of blood clotting disorders, or unexplained vaginal bleeding, as these conditions may worsen or lead to complications.
Patients with hormonal conditions such as uncontrolled hyperthyroidism or poorly controlled diabetes may require careful monitoring and possible dose adjustments while using this medicine.
Uses
