Regestrone 5 MG Description

Regestrone 5 mg tablet is used for the treatment of menstrual & gynaecological disorders due to an imbalance in hormonal levels. It is a hormonal medicine containing norethisterone as an active ingredient. Regestrone 5mg tablet is a man-made form of a female sex hormone.
