Promegestone(Cat No.:M008203) is a synthetic progestogen, a type of hormone used in hormone replacement therapy and for other gynecological and reproductive issues. Structurally similar to progesterone, it was developed to provide similar effects with improved stability and potency. Promegestone is particularly known for its strong progestational activity, meaning it effectively mimics the action of natural progesterone in the body. It is used primarily in combination with estrogen in hormonal contraceptives and menopausal hormone therapy to prevent endometrial hyperplasia and manage menopausal symptoms.
