Resumen rápido

Tipo de medicamento

Natural progestogen (micronised progesterone), used as part of combined hormone replacement therapy (HRT).

Funciona mediante

Utrogestan contains natural micronised progesterone, a hormone identical to that produced by the female body. It works by protecting the lining of the uterus (endometrium) from the stimulatory effects of oestrogens during hormone replacement therapy (HRT) with Oestrogel. This helps prevent endometrial hyperplasia and reduces the risk of endometrial cancer, while restoring a more natural hormonal balance.

Ingrediente activo

Progesterone (micronised)

Efectivo dentro de

Utrogestan works immediately to protect the lining of the womb during your HRT cycle. However, for the relief of general menopausal symptoms (as part of your combined HRT regime), it may take 3 months to feel the full benefits of hormonal balance.

¿Genérico?

No

Efectos secundarios

The most common side effect is drowsiness or dizziness (somnolence), which is why bedtime dosage is recommended. Other side effects may include breast tenderness, changes in menstrual bleeding (spotting), or mild headaches. Warning: If you experience sudden chest pain or difficulty breathing, seek medical help, although the risk of blood clots with body-identical progesterone is considered lower than with synthetic alternatives.

Detalles del medicamento

Descripción

Utrogestan es una terapia de reemplazo hormonal (TRH) de primera calidad que contiene progesterona micronizada. A diferencia de los progestágenos sintéticos, Utrogestan es "idéntico al cuerpo", lo que significa que su estructura química es idéntica a la progesterona producida naturalmente por tus ovarios.

Se prescribe a mujeres que aún tienen su útero y están tomando un suplemento de estrógeno (como Oestrogel o parches). Tomar solo estrógeno puede engrosar el revestimiento del útero; se añade Utrogestan para eliminar este revestimiento de forma segura y prevenir complicaciones graves. Debido a que puede causar somnolencia leve, muchas mujeres encuentran que ayuda a mejorar el sueño cuando se toma antes de acostarse.

Ingredientes

Progesterone (micronised) 100 mg. Excipients: Soya lecithin, gelatin, glycerol, titanium dioxide (E171). Allergy Warning: Contains soya lecithin. Do not use if you are allergic to soya or peanuts.

Efectos secundarios

Drowsiness, fatigue, bloating, nausea, or breast tenderness.
Less commonly: headaches, mood changes, light vaginal bleeding, or dizziness.
These effects are usually mild and temporary, especially at the start of treatment.

Advertencias

Do not use this medicine if you are allergic to progesterone, if you have severe liver impairment, a history of venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism, or unexplained vaginal bleeding. This medication may cause drowsiness, so it is recommended to take it in the evening before bedtime. Contact your doctor immediately if you experience jaundice, visual disturbances, severe headaches, or pain in the legs or chest.

Preguntas Frecuentes

What should I do if I forget to take a capsule?

If you forget to take your capsule at bedtime, do not take it the next morning, as this may cause drowsiness during the day. Simply skip the missed dose and take your next capsule at the usual time the following night. Never take a double dose to make up for a forgotten one.

Will I get a period while taking this?

It depends on how you take it. If you take it cyclically (e.g., usually days 15–26 of your cycle), you will likely have a "withdrawal bleed" similar to a period after you finish the capsules each month. If you take it continuously (every day), you normally do not bleed, though some spotting can occur in the first few months.

Can I take this if I have a peanut or soy allergy?

Strictly No. Utrogestan capsules contain soya lecithin. If you are allergic to soya or peanuts, you must not take this medicine. Please inform our doctors so an alternative progesterone treatment can be prescribed.

Why do I need to take this if I am using Oestrogel?

If you still have your womb (uterus), taking oestrogen alone causes the lining of the womb to build up, which increases the risk of uterine cancer. Utrogestan acts as the "counterbalance" to keep the lining thin and healthy. If you have had a hysterectomy, you typically do not need Utrogestan.

Does this protect against pregnancy?

No. Although progesterone is used in contraceptive pills, Utrogestan prescribed for HRT is not a contraceptive. If you are under 50 or still fertile, you must use non-hormonal contraception (like condoms) to prevent pregnancy.
