Allylestrenol

A synthetic progestin described and patented in 1958 and in medical use since the early 1960s; historically used for threatened miscarriage and premature labour, in Japan it has also been used for benign prostatic hyperplasia. This family brings together the active ingredient and other impurities.

Did you know?It is an unusual progestin: it lacks the ketone group at position 3, thought to be important for activity, and is a prodrug that the body converts into the active form.
