TabletsClinical Overview
Progesterone (Sustained Release Tablets 200mg) is a bioidentical progestogen on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines. Identical to human ovarian luteal progesterone, it transforms the proliferative endometrium into a secretory endometrium, promotes blastocyst implantation, suppresses myometrial oxytocin receptor expression, and inhibits uterine contractions to maintain pregnancy. Indicated for luteal phase support in assisted reproduction (IVF/ICSI), threatened and recurrent miscarriage, prevention of preterm birth in women with short cervix, secondary amenorrhea, and endometrial protection during estrogen HRT.
