Q_A

Q. What is 3 Phase 50mg Tablet?

3 Phase 50mg Tablet is a type of progesterone hormone which is extracted from plants, but its property matches with the human progesterone. This medicine undergoes a process called micronization where the size of the natural progesterone is reduced. The small size of the progesterone particles enhances its dissolution and absorption. This provides better availability of 3 Phase 50mg Tablet in the body and decreases its side effects.

Q. What is 3 Phase 50mg Tablet used to treat?

3 Phase 50mg Tablet is used to treat various disorders. It is given to women with secondary amenorrhea (no menstruation for 3 months in women who have had their menses before). It is used to support pregnancy, prevent premature labor, and treat bleeding disorders that may occur before menopause. It may be used as a part of fertility treatment and may be given as hormone replacement therapy after menopause. It is also given to relieve symptoms of premenstrual syndrome and painful bleeding like in dysfunctional uterine bleeding.

Q. Can you take 3 Phase 50mg Tablet every day?

Yes, 3 Phase 50mg Tablet can be taken every day. It is usually prescribed to be taken once daily in the evening or at bedtime.

Q. Does 3 Phase 50mg Tablet cause weight gain?

It is also used to prevent premature labor.
