Thank you for answering my question. From what i understand take three days before the periods are expected and 3 times in a day.
While i was reading about sandoz regesterone i came across a lot of doctors advice on starting 1 week before and 1 doze daily. While some mention twice or once in a day
Is those suggestions incorrect ?
The only recommended right doze is 3 times/day ?

Brief Answer:
Let the clinician decide after your visit
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome back.
As I mentioned the drug is used in many other conditions in varying doses.
There are various doses described.
The drug can be taken twice a day, but then needs to be started much earlier.
Once a day has high failure rate.
In nutshell your doctor will be the best judge once she examines you.
Some patients may not be fit to take even once a day dosing of this prescription drug.
I hope the advise will be helpful for you.
