Description
About Progynova 1mg
Progynova 1mg tablet is a Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) used to treat Estrogen deficiency symptoms in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women. It contains Estradiol Valerate, a form of the Estrogen hormone that regulates the menstrual cycle and ovulation.
Additionally, Progynova may be prescribed for breast and prostate cancer alongside other cancer treatments.
Manufactured by Zydus Healthcare, it helps restore Estrogen levels in the body, improving the quality of life for women experiencing menopausal changes.
What is Progynova 1 mg used for?
Progynova 1 mg is used for Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) to relieve symptoms of Estrogen deficiency in postmenopausal women, such as hot flashes, vaginal dryness, and mood swings.
If you’re only addressing vaginal symptoms, consider localized treatments before trying oral medications. Additionally, it helps prevent Osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.
Estrogen is one of the key hormones in this therapy, often used alongside Progesterone. Always follow your doctor’s instructions regarding dosage and duration of treatment.
How does Progynova Estradiol work?
Estradiol, a natural Estrogen produced by the ovaries, declines significantly during Menopause, leading to uncomfortable symptoms like hot flashes, vaginal dryness, mood swings, and loss of bone density.
Estradiol Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) replenishes declining Estrogen levels, helping to ease menopausal symptoms and improve overall comfort. It also prevents Osteoporosis by maintaining bone density in postmenopausal women, promoting long-term bone health.
