Estradiol benzoate/progesterone/methandriol dipropionate is a combination medication used in hormone therapy and hormonal contraception. It contains three active components: estradiol benzoate, progesterone, and methandriol dipropionate.
Components
- Estradiol benzoate: A synthetic form of estradiol, an estrogen hormone. It is used to manage symptoms of menopause, hypogonadism, and other conditions related to estrogen deficiency.
- Progesterone: A naturally occurring progestogen hormone involved in the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and embryogenesis.
- Methandriol dipropionate: An anabolic steroid and a derivative of methandriol. It is used to promote muscle growth and enhance physical performance.
Mechanism of Action
The combination of these three components works synergistically to provide comprehensive hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Estradiol benzoate helps to replenish estrogen levels, progesterone balances the effects of estrogen and supports the endometrium, and methandriol dipropionate contributes to muscle mass and strength.
Indications
This combination medication is primarily indicated for:
- Hormone replacement therapy in postmenopausal women
- Hormonal contraception
- Treatment of hypogonadism in women
Administration
The medication is administered via intramuscular injection. The dosage and frequency depend on the specific condition being treated and the patient's response to therapy.
Side Effects
Common side effects may include:
