Description:
Although progesterone is often referred to as the “hormone of pregnancy” as the origin of the name comes from the importance in “pro-gestation,” this hormone goes far beyond its role in placental integrity and maintenance of a pregnancy to full term. Progesterone is also a crucial metabolite intermediate in the production of endogenous hormones, including the sex hormones, corticosteroids, and the important role in the brain as a neurosteroid.
