Utrogestan 100mg Capsules

Utrogestan contains a hormone called progesterone and should be taken together with another medicine called oestrogen. The combination of Utrogestan and oestrogen belongs to a group of medicines called hormone replacement therapy (HRT).

As you get near to the menopause, the amount of the female hormones oestrogen and progesterone in your body declines. HRT such as Utrogestan replaces these hormones and reduces the symptoms of the menopause.

Why Utrogestan is taken with oestrogen - If your HRT contains only oestrogen the lining of the womb could build up causing many health problems. Taking Utrogestan together with oestrogen sheds the womb lining, thus preventing these problems occurring.
