HORMONES

Hormones are crucial chemical messengers in the body that play a significant role in regulating various bodily functions. From controlling growth and development to managing mood swings and metabolism, hormones are involved in countless processes. Progesterone, norethisterone, HCG, and drydrogesterone are examples of hormones that have specific roles in reproductive health and hormonal therapies.

Progesterone helps prepare the uterus for pregnancy and regulate the menstrual cycle. Norethisterone is a synthetic hormone commonly used in contraceptive pills and hormone replacement therapy. HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) is a hormone produced during pregnancy that aids in fetal development and testing for pregnancy. Drydrogesterone, also known as dydrogesterone, is a synthetic hormone that can be used in hormone replacement therapy or to support fertility treatments.

Understanding the complexities and functions of hormones is vital for healthcare professionals and individuals seeking to maintain hormonal balance or address specific medical conditions.
