A 2D chemical structure diagram depicts a steroid hormone with the cyclopentanoperhydrophenanthrene nucleus, showing four fused rings and a short side chain. Two carbonyl groups (red) are present at C3 and C20, with a Δ4 double bond in ring A. In biochemistry and endocrinology, this small-molecule progestogen functions within the endocrine system to regulate the menstrual cycle, prepare the endometrium, and support pregnancy, and is synthesized primarily in the corpus luteum and placenta, with contributions from the adrenal cortex.
