• Beschreibung: Norethindrone b-D-glucuronide is a synthetic steroid that has been modified to include a sugar group. This modification increases the solubility of the compound, which is necessary for its use as a progestogen in oral contraceptives. Norethindrone b-D-glucuronide is an orally active contraceptive that contains two sugar molecules that are attached to the hormone norethindrone. One sugar molecule is linked to the C2 carbon and the other is linked to the C3 carbon of norethindrone, forming a glucuronide ester. The glucuronide esters are more soluble than unconjugated norethindrone and this increased solubility allows for better absorption through mucous membranes.
