Pharmacological Properties
Dydrogesterone is a retroprogesterone with a molecular structure closely resembling natural progesterone. It combines strong oral bioavailability with selective progestogenic action, providing predictable effects on the endometrium without the androgenic, estrogenic, anabolic, or corticoid effects sometimes associated with other progestogens.
