FAQs
What is Hernmp 200mg Capsule?
Hernmp 200mg Capsule is a type of progesterone hormone which is extracted from plants, but its property matches with the human progesterone.

This provides better availability of Hernmp 200mg Capsule in the body and decreases its side effects.

Hernmp 200mg Capsule is used to treat various disorders. It is given to women with secondary amenorrhea (no menstruation for 3 months in women who have had their menses before). It is used to support pregnancy, prevent premature labor, and treat bleeding disorders that may occur before menopause.
