The drug **Proviron** contains the active substance – **Mesterolone** – in a dose of 25 mg per tablet. Mesterolone is primarily used in the treatment of symptoms related to androgen deficiency and male infertility.
Medical Use of Proviron:
The use of Proviron is recommended for disorders associated with a reduction in male hormone levels, such as:
- Reduced physical efficiency in middle and old age.
- Potency disorders caused by a deficiency of androgens produced by the testes.
- Hypogonadism (underactive testes).
- Infertility resulting from the worsening of semen quality.
It can also be used in cases of Leydig cell insufficiency that may occur after puberty, taken to increase the concentration of fructose in the sperm.
Mesterolone works by supplementing the androgen deficiency, which leads to the elimination or significant alleviation of associated symptoms. In medicine, it is used as an adjunct treatment method.
Effects of Mesterolone:
- Improved Efficiency: Alleviates symptoms of androgen deficiency, such as rapid fatigue, reduced physical capacity, and weakening of memory function.
- Increased Libido and Potency: Eliminates potency disorders caused by androgen deficiency.
- Mood Improvement: Eliminates sleep disturbances, depressive moods, and appetite disorders.
- Impact on Fertility: Increases sperm count and improves semen quality by boosting the amount of fructose in the seminal fluid, thereby increasing the chances of fertilization.
Important Note: In healthy men, Proviron **should not be used** for muscle development and increasing the body's efficiency. Due to its steroid nature, its use must occur under strict medical supervision, with regular prostate examinations recommended.
The dosage depends on the condition being treated. Typically, treatment begins with higher doses, which are then reduced during the continuation phase.
Dosing Schedules:
- Starting Dose: One Proviron tablet (25 mg) 3 times a day.
- Maintenance Dose: Reduction to one tablet 1–2 times a day.
