Emprogest Gel 1.125gm

Emprogest Gel is used for the following health conditions:

• Reducing symptoms of menopause, such as hot flushes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and mood changes.

• Assisting in hormone replacement therapy combined with oestrogen therapy.

• Restoring menstrual cycles in women with secondary amenorrhoea, which is the absence of menstrual periods.

• Enhancing the chances of successful conception by preparing the uterine lining for pregnancy.

Administer Emprogest Gel as follows:

• Ensure that your hands are clean before application.

• The gel is intended for vaginal use only.

• Carefully insert the applicator into your vagina to apply the gel.

• Avoid using other vaginal products within 6 hours before or after applying Emprogest Gel.

• If you have any doubts or questions, consult your doctor for specific directions on how to use this gel.

Emprogest Gel is applied vaginally.

Emprogest Gel contains natural micronised progesterone (8 %). Here's how it works:

• Transforms Endometrium: Progesterone transforms the proliferative endometrium into a secretory endometrium. This transformation is necessary for developing decidual tissue, which is essential for pregnancy.

• Decreases Gonadotropin Levels: Progesterone reduces the levels of gonadotropins (FSH and LH) in the body through a negative feedback mechanism.

• Reduces Risk of Hyperplasia and Cancer: When used in hormone replacement therapy (HRT), progesterone counteracts the proliferative effects of oestrogen on the endometrium. This action reduces the risk of endometrial hyperplasia and cancer.

• Keep Emprogest Gel in a cool place.

• Do not freeze the gel.

• Protect it from excessive light and moisture.

• Ensure the gel is securely stored, out of reach of children.

• Check the expiry date on the package and use before it.

• During menopause, incorporate foods rich in calcium and Vitamin D into your diet, such as dairy products, green leafy vegetables, and fish. This can help manage symptoms like hot flushes and night sweats that Emprogest Gel is used to manage.

• Regular gentle exercise like yoga or walking can help improve mood changes associated with menopause and infertility, conditions for which Emprogest Gel is often prescribed.
