Description
GESTOSERV-100 contains natural micronised progesterone, a bioidentical female hormone essential for regulating the menstrual cycle, supporting pregnancy, and part of hormone replacement therapy (HRT).
Uses of GESTOSERV-100
-
Treatment of female infertility: Used to support ovulation, the luteal phase, and early pregnancy, especially for women at high risk of miscarriage or with recurrent pregnancy loss.
-
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT): Prescribed alongside estrogen in menopausal women to prevent endometrial hyperplasia (thickening of the womb lining) caused by unopposed estrogen.
-
Management of menstrual disorders: Amenorrhea (absence of periods), irregular cycles, or abnormal uterine bleeding due to progesterone deficiency.
Mechanism of Action
Progesterone prepares and maintains the uterine lining for embryo implantation and pregnancy support. In HRT, it counteracts estrogen’s effects on the endometrium, reducing cancer risk.
