Hydroxyprogesterone Injection – Corpogest-Depot 250 Injection is a type of progestin, a synthetic form of the female hormone progesterone that’s used to delay labour. Premature membrane rupture, high blood pressure during pregnancy (pre-eclampsia), and a poor diet can all lead to the onset of labour before 37 full weeks of pregnancy. The vagina may leak or bleed, there may be pressure in the pelvic, and there may be regular cramps that resemble menstruation cramps.

It contains “Hydroxyprogesterone,” a progestin (female hormones) that controls a woman’s immunological response during pregnancy to prevent the embryo from being rejected and to enable the embryo to attach to the uterus. In pregnant women who have previously had early labour, hydroxyprogesterone helps reduce the risk of premature birth and prevents miscarriage. Only pregnant women who are carrying one baby or who have previously experienced a preterm (premature) delivery of one baby should be given hydroxyprogesterone.

Uses of Hydroxyprogesterone Injection

Hydroxyprogesterone Injection is a synthetic, injectable variant of the female hormone progesterone that reduces the chance of premature delivery, especially in women who have experienced this issue in a previous pregnancy. A hormone called progesterone thickens the uterine lining and primes it for the development and growth of the unborn child. Therefore, it promotes uterine growth throughout pregnancy and stops any contractions that may otherwise result in miscarriage.
