Gynaecosid Tablets (Methyloestrenolone + Methyloestradiol) – Efroze
Used For
Gynaecosid® Tablets are used under medical supervision for certain menstrual and hormonal disorders, particularly secondary amenorrhea (absence of menstrual periods). They may also be prescribed in conditions associated with estrogen deficiency, menstrual irregularities, and certain urogenital symptoms.
How It Works
Gynaecosid contains Methyloestradiol and Methyloestrenolone, two hormonal agents that provide estrogenic and progestogenic activity. Together, they help influence the hormonal balance involved in the menstrual cycle and can support the restoration of menstrual bleeding when clinically appropriate.
Usage & Safety
Dosage:
The dose should be determined by a qualified healthcare professional. Some product references describe one tablet on two consecutive days for inducing menstruation, but the medicine should not be self-administered because the underlying cause of absent periods needs to be established first.
Possible Side Effects:
Some patients may experience:
- Nausea or vomiting
- Breast tenderness
- Abdominal discomfort
- Headache or drowsiness
- Changes in blood pressure
- Changes in menstrual bleeding
Drug Interactions:
Gynaecosid may interact with certain medicines, including isoniazid, ritonavir, bromocriptine, cyclosporine, dantrolene, and corticotropin. Always inform your doctor about other medicines or supplements you are taking.
Indications
Gynaecosid may be prescribed for:
- Secondary amenorrhea
- Certain menstrual irregularities
- Estrogen deficiency
- Selected menopausal or perimenopausal symptoms
- Urogenital symptoms associated with hormonal deficiency, such as vaginal atrophy and dysuria
When Not to Use
Do not use Gynaecosid if:
- You are pregnant or pregnancy has not been ruled out
- You have unexplained abnormal genital bleeding
- You have a known hypersensitivity to its ingredients
- Your doctor has advised against hormonal therapy because of a history of certain hormone-sensitive conditions or blood-clotting problems.
Precautions
Before using Gynaecosid, your doctor should evaluate the reason for menstrual absence or irregularity. Pregnancy should be ruled out before treatment. Tell your healthcare professional about any history of liver problems, high blood pressure, blood-clotting disorders, hormone-sensitive cancers, or unexplained vaginal bleeding.
