Brief Answer:
Progynova helps in growth of fertilized egg

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns about progynova.

Progynova contains estradiol which helps in improving endometrial thickness.

Progynova does not prevent fertilized egg from growing or early pregnancy. In fact it helps it.

Let me know if you need any more help.

Brief Answer:
Can be used if endometrial thickness is lower

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Progynova is regularly used to increase endometrial lining in women who are trying for pregnancy. In fact this is used mainly in women trying for pregnancy and during initial part of pregnancy if endometrial thickness is low.

There is definitely caution required if used during initial part of pregnancy and can only be
decided about benefit versus risk assessment by your treating doctor based on endometrial thickness.

It is not harmful and infact helps while trying for pregnancy by improving endometrial thickness.

I hope this information helps.
