Progesterone

Progesterone is the second most important female hormone with numerous metabolic functions. One of these is increasing cerebral sugar metabolism.

In a sense it balances out possible estrogen over-production by the male.

Use Traditionally, progesterone establishes the presence of a functioning corpus luteum or luteal cell function; confirm basal body temperature measurements for the occurrence of ovulation; obtain an indication of the day of ovulation; evaluate the functional state of the corpus luteum in infertility patients; assess placental function during pregnancy; ovarian function test.

Progesterone and 17--hydroxyprogesterone are weak androgens. Increased in congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase, 17-hydroxylase, and 11--hydroxylase deficiency. It is decreased in threatened abortion, primary or secondary hypogonadism, and short luteal phase syndrome.
