Prometrium (Progesterone)

General information

Prometrium is a female hormone important for the regulation of ovulation and menstruation. It contains the hormone progesterone. It is used to cause menstrual periods in women who have not yet reached menopause but are not having periods due to a lack of progesterone in the body.

Take the pill with a full glass of water with or without food. The recommended dose of progesterone is 200 mg daily taken at bedtime for the last 14 days of estrogen treatment per cycle.
