Overview Gestoma 400mg Tablet SR

Progesterone, the active ingredient in Gestoma 400mg SR tablets, a natural female hormone, addresses hormonal imbalances underlying menstrual and pregnancy complications. Often prescribed alongside estrogen in hormone replacement therapy, it counteracts endometrial hyperplasia. For optimal absorption, take with food at the same time daily, continuing treatment as directed by your physician, regardless of symptom improvement. Common side effects, often less pronounced after initial weeks, may include headache, breast tenderness, irregular bleeding/spotting, abdominal discomfort, bloating, nausea, vomiting, hair loss, swelling, and yeast infections. Between-period bleeding warrants medical consultation if recurrent. Prior to commencing treatment, disclose any history of breast cancer, unusual vaginal bleeding, or liver disease. Regular womb examinations are typical during treatment. Complete medication disclosure to your doctor is essential, as interactions with other medications are possible. Limiting alcohol and tobacco consumption is generally recommended.
