Progesterone / Progestins

Progesterone and progestins are hormones used to supplement or mimic natural progesterone, often to protect the uterine lining when estrogen is given or to manage menstrual and menopausal symptoms. They work by acting on progesterone receptors to regulate endometrial growth and reproductive hormone signaling, which can reduce abnormal bleeding and lower the risk of estrogen-driven endometrial overgrowth.
