All About Progesterone

My friend wants me to talk about progesterone for this project she has.. unfortunately , I have no idea what progesteron is :)

That’s where Google comes in handy and when wikipedia becomes your best friend.

Wikipedia defines progesterone as:

…a C-21 steroid hormone involved in the female menstrual cycle, pregnancy (supports gestation) and embryogenesis of humans and other species. Progesterone belongs to a class of hormones called progestogens, and is the major naturally occurring human progestogen.

Progesterone should not be confused with progestins, which are synthetically produced progestogens.

There you go! That (didn’t) make sense! Thanks alot!
