Description

Progynova 2 mg Tablet contains Estradiol, a form of estrogen (female sex hormone) used as Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). It is prescribed to relieve symptoms associated with menopause, including hot flushes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, itching, and burning caused by estrogen deficiency. It is also used to help prevent postmenopausal osteoporosis in women who are at increased risk of bone loss.

In certain clinical situations, Progynova 2 mg Tablet may also be prescribed as part of the treatment for breast cancer or prostate cancer, in combination with other anticancer medications, as determined by a healthcare professional.

The tablet should be swallowed whole with water and may be taken with or without food. For the best therapeutic effect, take it at the same time each day. Your doctor will determine the appropriate dosage and duration of treatment based on your medical condition and response to therapy.

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. Do not take a double dose to compensate for a missed dose. Do not stop taking the medicine without consulting your doctor, as sudden discontinuation may reduce its effectiveness.

Benefits of Progynova Tablet

In Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)

Hormone Replacement Therapy helps relieve menopausal symptoms such as hot flushes, night sweats, mood changes, vaginal dryness, burning, itching, and reduced sexual desire. Since these symptoms may continue for several years, HRT can significantly improve daily comfort, quality of life, and emotional well-being.

Estradiol replaces the estrogen that the body naturally produces before menopause, helping restore hormonal balance and reduce symptoms associated with estrogen deficiency. Continue taking the medicine exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider to obtain the maximum therapeutic benefit.

How Progynova Tablet Works

Progynova Tablet contains Estradiol, a synthetic form of the natural female hormone estrogen. It works by replacing the estrogen that the body produces in reduced amounts during or after menopause. Restoring estrogen levels helps relieve symptoms such as hot flushes, vaginal dryness, burning, itching, and discomfort, while also helping maintain bone density and reducing the risk of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.
