Posted on Thu, 29 Jan 2015

Question: I've been got an IUI done on 30 Dec 2014, it was my 17 day. The Doc has asked me to take Puregest 400 mg twice a day for 15 days, I've been taking the tab orally. Is this the correct method.

Brief Answer:
yes its the correct method, orally

Detailed Answer:
hello,
Thanks for contacting healthcaremagic.
Puregest 400mg is to be taken orally itself twice a day for 15 days after IUI to cover for luteal phase defect and if fertlization occurs, it would help in smooth implantation.
So you are taking it correctly.

The Tab is causing slight dizziness which lasts for for about 15 - 20 mins when take the tab during the day. Is this normal and will this cause any harm. I've heard the success rate for IUI is 35 - 40% is this correct.

you may reduce the dose to 200mg each

Detailed Answer:
hello,
I n that case you may reduce the dose to 200mg each and take it with 2 gasses of water.it does cause dizziness sometimes in some cases.
and yes the success rate is 35-40 per cent in case of iui.
