Lutigest® is a progesterone vaginal tablet that helps thicken the lining of your womb.

Lutigest® helps to get your womb ready for an embryo to be implanted. It can also help your womb to maintain a pregnancy in the early stages.

Your clinic will provide you with personalised advice on when to use your Lutigest® – it is commonly taken starting from the day of egg retrieval and for thirty days after, if pregnancy is confirmed.

Lutigest® is taken in the form of a tablet that you place into your vagina three times a day. You can use the applicator provided to help with the placing of the tablet in the vagina.
