Benefits of C-Hop 200mg Tablet
Hormone replacement therapy
Hormone Placement Therapy (HRT) is a treatment to relieve symptoms of
menopause such as hot flushes, night sweats, mood swings, vaginal dryness and
reduced sex drive. Since menopause can last for several years, this treatment
can make a big improvement to your daily life and mood. You should use this
medicine as it is prescribed, and for as long as it is prescribed by your
doctor.
Female infertility
C-Hop 200mg Tablet contains progesterone, a female hormone that is important in the
regulation of ovulation and menstruation. It is used to cause menstrual
periods in women who have not reached menopause but are not having periods due
to a lack of natural progesterone in the body. Progesterone helps to prepare
the uterus for pregnancy by causing the uterus lining (endometrium) to
thicken. This increases the chance of a successful pregnancy. You should use
the medicine as prescribed for it to be effective. You may be asked to
continue with this treatment for a period after becoming pregnant.
