4,7-Dihydro Megestrol Acetate

Description:

4,7-Dihydro Megestrol Acetate, with the CAS number 14994-27-5, is a synthetic progestin, which is a type of hormone that mimics the effects of progesterone in the body. This compound is characterized by its steroidal structure, which includes a cyclopentanoperhydrophenanthrene core typical of steroid hormones. It is primarily used in medical applications, particularly in the treatment of conditions such as breast cancer and endometrial cancer, as well as for appetite stimulation in patients with significant weight loss. The substance exhibits anti-estrogenic properties and can influence various physiological processes, including the regulation of the menstrual cycle and the maintenance of pregnancy. In terms of solubility, 4,7-Dihydro Megestrol Acetate is generally lipophilic, allowing it to be absorbed effectively in the body. Its pharmacokinetics involve metabolism primarily in the liver, and it is excreted through urine and feces. As with any medication, it is important to consider potential side effects and contraindications when using this compound in clinical settings.
