Benefits of Gemtide Injection
- In Hormonal disorders

- In Fertility treatment
- Gemtide supports ovulation or prepares the body for pregnancy, as one step in the treatment plan your fertility specialist has made.
- In Hormone replacement
- Gemtide replaces hormones the body no longer produces, relieving symptoms such as hot flushes, night sweats and dryness after the menopause.
- In Contraception
- Gemtide prevents pregnancy reliably when taken as directed, and often makes periods lighter, more regular and less painful.
How Gemtide Injection works
Gemtide Injection (2.4ml Each) is a synthetic form of a natural human hormone called parathyroid hormone (pth). It works by increasing the number and activity of bone-forming cells (osteoblasts). This strengthens the bones and minimizes the risk of fractures.
