Hi,

Lupigest is a natural female sex hormone, progesterone. It is used to treat menstrual and pregnancy related issues that are caused due to hormonal imbalance. The most common side effects of this medicine include fatigue, dizziness or drowsiness, feeling sick, abdominal cramps or pain.Initially after starting hormonal pills,due to raised hormone levels, these side effects occur. Your body needs time to adjust to the new hormone levels.The side effects will reduce in the further cycles.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Saranya Ramadoss, General & Family Physician
