Susten SR 400 mg (Progesterone Sustained Release)
Susten SR 400 mg is a sustained-release tablet containing natural micronized Progesterone. Progesterone is the hormone a woman's body relies on to prepare the uterus for pregnancy and keep a pregnancy going in its early weeks. When the body doesn't make enough, doctors may prescribe a supplement to make up the difference. The 400 mg strength is the highest in the Susten SR range. Doctors usually choose it when a woman needs strong, steady hormonal support.
Doctors commonly prescribe Susten SR 400 mg to lower the risk of preterm birth in women with a short cervix or a history of early delivery. It's also used to support a pregnancy at risk of miscarriage and to provide luteal phase support during fertility treatments like IVF or IUI. It can help with certain menstrual irregularities caused by low Progesterone, too. The sustained-release design lets the hormone enter the bloodstream slowly over many hours. This avoids sharp peaks and drops and makes once-daily dosing practical for most patients.
Working method of the active ingredient Progesterone
Progesterone works by binding to progesterone receptors in the uterus, cervix, breasts, and brain. In the uterus, it changes the lining (the endometrium) from a growing state into a secretory state. This makes the lining thick, nourishing, and ready for a fertilized egg to implant and grow.
Once a pregnancy starts, Progesterone keeps the uterine muscles relaxed. This lowers the chance of early contractions that could lead to miscarriage or premature labor. It also helps keep the cervix firm and closed, which matters for women with a shorter-than-normal cervix. Progesterone also adjusts the immune response in the uterus so the body accepts the developing baby instead of reacting against it.
With the sustained-release format, the 400 mg dose is released gradually through the day. Hormone levels stay more stable, and that steady support is what the uterus needs during sensitive stages of pregnancy.
