• Prevention of Preterm Birth: By enhancing progesterone levels, hydroxyprogesterone can help prevent preterm birth, especially in women who have had a prior preterm birth.
• Maintenance of Pregnancy: Hydroxyprogesterone aids in maintaining pregnancy, particularly in cases where women have had recurrent miscarriages due to hormonal imbalance.

• Always keep the injection out of the sight and reach of children.

• If Proluton Depot 500 Injection is prescribed for managing conditions related to hormonal imbalances, maintaining a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins and whole grains can help manage your hormone levels better.
• Regular physical activity like walking or yoga can also contribute positively by reducing stress levels, which can play a significant role in hormone regulation.
