Expert Advice
- Take your medicine every day at the same time, preferably before bed.
- It can be given by mouth, through the vagina, or through the rectum. Follow your doctor's instructions exactly.
- Don't drink or smoke; both of these things mess with hormones and make it harder to get pregnant.
- Tell your doctor if you have depression, breast cancer, liver disease, or blood clots.
- Do not skip or take two doses at once; consistency is key for hormonal balance.
- When using the vaginal method, make sure to have good hygiene.
- Don't drive or use heavy machinery after taking the capsule because it could make you sleepy.

How it works
- Progesterone is a natural female sex hormone that is important for the health of the menstrual cycle and reproduction.
- It keeps the endometrium (the lining of the uterus) stable so that a fertilized egg can implant and the pregnancy can continue.
- It stops the uterus from contracting, which could cause a miscarriage.
- When taken for hormone replacement therapy (HRT), it balances the effects of estrogen on the uterus and lowers the chance of endometrial hyperplasia.
Medicine Interaction
- Be careful when using or tell your doctor if you are taking:
- Anticonvulsants like phenytoin and carbamazepine make progesterone less effective.
- Antibiotics (rifampicin) may lower hormone levels.
- Antifungals (ketoconazole, itraconazole) make the negative effects of progesterone worse.
- Blood thinners (like warfarin) change how long it takes for blood to clot.
- Herbal medicines, like St. John's Wort, lower the activity of progesterone.
- Always tell your doctor about any additional drugs, vitamins, or herbs you are taking.
How to Use
- Oral capsule: Take it whole with water, ideally before bed.
- For vaginal use, use clean, dry hands to insert the capsule thoroughly into the vagina once a day or as directed.
- Don't chew or shatter the capsule.
- For optimal effects, take it at the same time every day.
- Follow the directions and finish the whole course.
- Keep it out of the sun and in a cool, dry area.
