Introduction About SUSTEN 100MG INJECTION
SUSTEN
100MG INJECTION is used for the maintenance of early pregnancy in
patients who faced documented history of repeated miscarriages due to
luteal phase defect (a problem in menstrual cycle caused due to
deficiency of progesterone during the midway of the menstrual cycle).
It
can also be used as an adjuvant to infertility techniques (such as in
vitro fertilization (IVF) or gamete intra-fallopian transfer (GIFT)) to
facilitate successful implantation of the fertilized egg in the uterus.
It is also used to manage threatened abortions and to manage abnormal
uterine bleeding caused due to hormonal imbalance.
It can be used
as a diagnostic tool in progesterone withdrawal testing to diagnose the
endocrinal causes of secondary amenorrhea (irregular or lack of
menstrual periods) and to judge the chances of pregnancy among infertile
women.
It contains a medicine called progesterone which is a steroid hormone that functions similar to the endogenous female sex hormones.
