Hi there
This is in haste as I am working this morning off in a minute...
I've been in touch with Dr Currie and she confirms the current view that as part of cyclical HRT Utrogestan 200 mg should be taken for 12 days per 4 week cycle. She is also contacting the manufacturer and will be updating the website accordingly as necessary in due course.
She also said that the Utrogestan 200 mg that is currently used vaginally as fertility preparation can also be taken orally. However of ocurse this means that the Patient Information leaflet (PiL) is incorrect as it referes to fertility. The correct PiL for HRT Utrogestan 200 mg can be found on the web. As we know Utrogestan is not licensed to be used vaginally in UK as part of HRT, but it is for fertility

, but is prescribed for this purpose bysome specialists if there are side effects from oral use.
As far as I can make out this means the PiL for utrogestan 100 mg is incorrect and I would be interested to see if anyone has an old leaflet from someone who has been taking it continuously for a long time to see if it is different ie says 100 mg shouldbe taken for 25 days out of 28. I agree Stellajane they need to get it sorted!
Hope this helps
