Bleeding disorders and aiding fertility treatments Progesterone Gestone

Uses
Gestone (Progesterone) is indicated for bleeding disorders that affect the uterus, to aid fertility treatments (such as IVF treatment) and other fertility treatments, and to help continue an early pregnancy when progesterone production by the body is insufficient. The main ingredient contained in this medicine is a type of hormone which is known to play an important role in the menstrual cycle and pregnancy.

When used as a support for in vitro fertilisation (IVF) or other forms of treatment such as gamete intra-fallopian transfer (GIFT), it works by helping to implant the egg into the womb lining. It may also be used for maintaining a pregnancy. In cases of menorrhagia (heavy menstrual bleeding), it may be given to help treat the symptoms by acting in the same way as natural progesterone does.

Dosage and Administration
Gestone (Progesterone) comes in the form of a solution, which is provided in an ampoule. It will be injected by your doctor or medical professional. Generally, doctors will administer the injection into a muscle in the buttock. The dosage for treating bleeding of the uterus is normally 5mg to 10mg per day for 5 to 10 days, with treatment lasting until 2 days prior to the menstrual period starting.

When used for the maintenance of pregnancy, the doctor may recommend administration twice weekly (or possibly more). The dosage of each injection may vary, depending on the opinion of the doctor in charge. Treatment usually commences on day 15, and it generally lasts until 6 to 8 weeks of pregnancy, and it may be stopped when progesterone production by the placenta is considered sufficient. In all cases, it will be necessary to fully comply with all instructions provided by your doctor.

Patients being treated with Gestone (Progesterone) may experience some side effects, which could include:

  • Acne
