Progesterone Side Effects

Meaning

Progesterone Side Effects encompass the range of undesirable physiological or psychological reactions that can occur following the administration of progesterone or progestin therapy. These effects vary widely among individuals but commonly include transient symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, and somnolence, especially with oral administration. Furthermore, patients may experience mood changes, breast tenderness, or menstrual irregularities depending on the dosage and route of delivery. Clinical management of these side effects is a key aspect of optimizing hormonal health and adherence to treatment.
