How does progesterone benefit fertility and pregnancy?
Progesterone plays a critical role in both fertility and pregnancy. It's a hormone produced by the ovaries that helps prepare the uterus for potential implantation of an embryo during pregnancy. Keepgest 200mg Capsule (natural, micronized form of progesterone) is used as a medicine to support uterine preparation for pregnancy and reduce abortion risk in certain cases. It also plays a protective role during pregnancy by preventing premature labor.
