Dycard 10
Dydrogesterone is a hormonal medication. It has a similar action to the female hormone known as progesterone. It is used for the treatment of menstrual conditions such as unusual menstrual bleeding or pain, irregular periods, and premenstrual syndrome (physical and emotional changes experienced by some women a few days before menstruation). Dycard 10 is also used to treat endometriosis (growth of tissue outside the womb), female infertility, threatened abortions (vaginal bleeding that occurs in the first 20 weeks of pregnancy), or habitual abortion (three or more consecutive pregnancy losses). This medicine is used as a component in hormone replacement therapy (a treatment to relieve symptoms of menopause).

INTRODUCTION
Dycard 10 may cause side effects such as nausea, headache, abnormal vaginal discharge, breast pain and tenderness, etc. These side effects usually subside with time. However, consult your doctor for further assistance if they persist or worsen. Avoid driving vehicles or operating heavy machines if you feel dizzy or drowsy after taking this medicine.
Dycard 10 can be taken with or without food. Take the medication at the same time every day for ease of remembering. Do not discontinue the medication without consulting your doctor. Follow the instructions given by your doctor about the dose and duration of the treatment.
BENEFITS OF DYCARD 10
Dycard 10 is not recommended if you are allergic to it. It should be avoided if you have undiagnosed vaginal bleeding, serious liver conditions, or a progesterone-dependent tumour (a type of cancer that is dependent on progesterone for growth and/or survival). Inform your doctor if you have porphyria (abnormalities in the production of an oxygen-carrying chemical known as haeme, due to the accumulation of porphyrins in the body), depression, or other medical conditions.
