Utrogestan

This product is a capsule used as part of a hormone replacement therapy programme (HRT). It contains progesterone, which is a vital component in maintaining the female body’s hormonal balance.

When undergoing HRT, oestrogen is supplied to replace falling hormone levels and reduce menopausal symptoms which can cause distress. In women who have not had a hysterectomy, oestrogen boosts the growth of the womb lining (or endometrium). However, this growth can lead to endometrial cancer if it is not opposed by another hormone. Progesterone is given to provide balance and lessen the effect of oestrogen on the endometrium (although it does not entirely eliminate the risk of cancer). When taken alongside oestrogen, this treatment is referred to as combined HRT.

Women undergoing HRT should have their treatment and condition monitored by a healthcare professional on a regular basis. Patients using HRT are at an increased risk of breast cancer, and this risk needs to be weighed against the potential benefits of treatment by a qualified doctor.

This treatment should not be taken by patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have a history of: severe liver dysfunction; blood clots or deep vein thrombosis; inflammation caused by blood clots; heart disease; strokes; blood disorders; vaginal or cerebral bleeding; or cancer. Patients who are allergic to nuts or soya cannot use this treatment. Patients who suffer from high blood pressure, epilepsy, asthma, migraines, diabetes, mild to moderate liver or kidney dysfunction or depression may also not be able to use this treatment. Patients must disclose their full medical history to their prescriber before purchasing and applying this treatment.

Side effects include sleepiness, dizziness, breast pain, irritation of the skin, weight fluctuations, gastrointestinal pain and discomfort, hair loss, decreased sex drive, facial hair, chloasma and blood clots. The information provided here is not comprehensive. For a full list of side effects, restrictions and safety information, consult the leaflet provided or ask your prescriber.
