About Drogyna Tablet

Drogyna Tablet refers to the class of drugs known as steroid hormones. It is also combined with estrogens for hormone replacement therapy in menopausal women and low sex hormone levels in women. Infertility is the inability to conceive within 12 months. On the other hand, Premenstrual syndrome comprises signs and symptoms like mood swings, tender breasts, food cravings, fatigue, irritability, and depression. It occurs during certain days of the menstrual period in females, generally just before their menses.

Drogyna Tablet is a female hormone that controls women's ovulation and menstruation. Drogyna Tablet causes secretive changes in the uterus's endometrium lining, promotes the breast's development, relaxes the uterus, blocks the maturation and release of the follicle, and retains pregnancy.

Medicinal Benefits

Drogyna Tablet is a female hormone that regulates ovulation and menstruation in women. It helps in maintaining a healthy womb lining during the pregnancy stage. Drogyna Tablet helps initiate the menses cycle (periods) in women who have not yet reached menopause. Besides this, it prevents overgrowth of the uterus in postmenopausal women who take estrogen as hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Drogyna Tablet is used to regulate the uterine lining in postmenopausal women receiving estrogens who have not removed their uterus through surgery. It also helps treat amenorrhea (cessation or irregular menses cycle for more than three months). It is also given in combination with estrogens as part of menopausal replacement therapy. The injection form of Drogyna Tablet is prescribed for treating abnormal uterine bleeding along with irregular or ceased menstrual cycles. The intravaginal gel form of Drogyna Tablet assists in reproductive technology for infertile women with progesterone deficiency or irregular or ceased menstrual cycle. The vaginal insert form of Drogyna Tablet supports early pregnancy and implantation of an embryo in the uterus. Off-label use of Drogyna Tablet helps in reducing the risk of preterm birth.
