About this treatment

What is Progesterone?

Oral progesterone may be prescribed for specific hormone-related needs; approval status depends on the exact product and strength. FDA approval applies to specific products and indications; your prescribed use may be off-label.

The science

How Progesterone works

Progesterone acts on hormone receptors and changes the uterine lining. An appropriate regimen can help protect the lining during systemic estrogen therapy in patients with a uterus.

Your clinician considers your symptoms, medical history, and other medicines before prescribing. Follow-up helps assess your response and whether treatment remains appropriate.
