Progestogens

Progestogens are used to treat endometriosis, secondary amenorrhea (cessation of menstruation due to low levels of certain hormones) and uterine bleeding. They work by acting in a biologically similar way to the female hormone progesterone, which regulates and stimulates various functions, including the menstrual cycle and pregnancy. An example of a commonly prescribed progestogen is Aygestin (norethindrone acetate).

• Endometriosis
