Description
Progesterone Compounded Capsules are a prescription-only, bio-identical hormone preparation designed for oral administration. This customized dosage form allows for precise titration to meet individual patient needs in hormone replacement therapy (HRT) regimens. This product is compounded in a state-licensed facility under stringent quality control protocols using USP-grade progesterone.
Progesterone is a naturally occurring steroid hormone involved in the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and embryogenesis. Progesterone transforms the estrogen-primed endometrium from a proliferative to a secretory state. It decreases the frequency of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) pulses from the hypothalamus, which reduces the secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) from the anterior pituitary. It is essential for maintaining a pregnancy. Used in HRT to oppose the effects of estrogen on the endometrium and reduce the risk of estrogen-induced endometrial hyperplasia in postmenopausal women with a uterus. Also used for the treatment of secondary amenorrhea.
Disclaimer
