Gestone Injection contains progesterone, a crucial hormone for reproductive health and pregnancy maintenance. This injectable medication provides direct and effective progesterone supplementation when oral administration is insufficient or not suitable. Uses Gestone is primarily used for luteal phase support in Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) treatments, prevention of preterm birth in women with history of preterm delivery, and treatment of secondary amenorrhea. It’s also prescribed for threatened or recurrent miscarriage management. Benefits Supports implantation and early pregnancy maintenance in ART Helps prevent preterm birth in high-risk pregnancies Treats menstrual irregularities from progesterone deficiency Provides rapid and reliable progesterone supplementation Reduces miscarriage risk in certain cases Ensures consistent hormone levels through direct administration Bypasses digestive system for better absorption Supports luteal phase deficiency treatment How It Works Progesterone prepares the uterine lining (endometrium) for implantation of a fertilized egg and maintains pregnancy by preventing uterine contractions. It regulates the menstrual cycle, supports mammary gland development, and creates an optimal environment for embryo development and placental formation. Dosage Indication Typical Dosage Administration ART Support 25-100mg daily Intramuscular injection Preterm Prevention 250mg weekly Intramuscular injection Amenorrhea 50-100mg daily for 6-8 days Intramuscular injection Dosage starts from egg retrieval day in ART. Always follow healthcare provider’s specific instructions. Duration of Action Gestone begins working immediately after injection, with peak progesterone levels reached within 8-24 hours. Effects typically last 24-48 hours depending on dosage. For ART support, treatment continues through the first trimester until placenta produces adequate progesterone naturally. Side Effects Common side effects include injection site reactions (pain, swelling, redness), breast tenderness, mood changes, and fatigue. Some patients experience headache, drowsiness, or bloating. Serious but rare side effects include blood clots, severe allergic reactions, or liver problems. Warning Gestone must be administered by or under supervision of healthcare professionals. Contraindicated in patients with known progesterone hypersensitivity, active liver disease, history of thromboembolic disorders, breast cancer, or undiagnosed vaginal bleeding. May cause dizziness or drowsiness affecting ability to drive. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding Gestone is specifically used to support early pregnancy, especially in ART cycles and high-risk pregnancies. Generally considered safe when medically indicated during pregnancy. Use during breastfeeding should be discussed with healthcare provider as progesterone may reduce milk production.
