• Description: Pregnanediol 3α-O-β-D-glucuronide is a steroid conjugate, which is primarily a urinary metabolite derived from the catabolism of progesterone. It represents an important biomarker in endocrinological studies with direct relevance to reproductive biology. The compound originates in the body during the breakdown of progesterone, where it is conjugated with glucuronic acid to increase its solubility for renal excretion. This transformation allows for convenient and non-invasive monitoring of progesterone levels in clinical and research settings.
