What is Lextone

Lextone is a female hormone important for the regulation of ovulation and menstruation.
Lextone is used to cause menstrual periods in women who have not yet reached menopause but are not having periods due to a lack of Lextone in the body. Lextone is also used to prevent overgrowth in the lining of the uterus in postmenopausal women who are receiving estrogen hormone replacement therapy.
Lextone should not be used to prevent heart disease or dementia, because Lextone may actually increase your risk of developing these conditions.
Lextone may also be used for other purposes not listed in Lextone guide.
