Metabolite Identification
Common NameDydrogesterone
DescriptionDydrogesterone is only found in individuals that have used or taken this drug. It is a synthetic progestational hormone with no androgenic or estrogenic properties. Unlike many other progestational compounds, dydrogesterone produces no increase in temperature and does not inhibit ovulation. [PubChem]Dydrogesterone works by regulating the healthy growth and normal shedding of the womb lining by acting on progesterone receptors in the uterus.
