Hi
Yes,Petogen contains medroxyprogesterone,a female hormone which causes increased weight gain due to salt and water rention.Irregular cycles are also common in the first two to three months.Kindly check blood pressure.Incase of high blood pressure or irregular bleeding even after 3rd cycle,visit your gynaecologist for further management.
Hope that was helpful.Let me know if i can assist you further.
