17α-Dihydro equilenin (Cat No.: R052477) is a steroid hormone derived from equilenin, found in the urine of pregnant mares. It is a key component of conjugated estrogens used in hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for menopausal symptoms. This compound mimics natural estrogens, helping to alleviate symptoms such as hot flashes and osteoporosis. Research on 17α-dihydro equilenin focuses on its pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and safety in HRT, contributing to the development of improved treatments for menopausal women.
