Yes, Orgamed is safe to use, if taken in a prescribed amount for a specified time as advised by the doctor. However, some side effects are observed at regular doses these are insomnia (difficulty in falling asleep), dizziness, and headache. Do not hesitate to inform your doctor if you are facing any of the above.

Orgamed contains medroxyprogesterone which is a synthetic form of the naturally occurring female sex hormone (progesterone) that works by restoring the normal levels of this hormone in the body which helps in regulating the normal menstrual cycle. Incase of contraception, it works by preventing ovulation (a process by which egg matures and released by the ovaries). In this way Orgamed acts as a contraceptive and helps in menorrhagia as well as secondary amenorrhoea.
