Progesterone synthesis inhibitor

Progesterone is a hormone made by the body that helps in pregnancy and menstrual cycle regulation. A progesterone synthesis inhibitor is a type of medication that lowers the amount of progesterone made by the body. It basically stops the body from making too much progesterone.

So, imagine that your body has a factory that makes a hormone called progesterone. This hormone helps your body get ready for a baby or regulates your period. Now, a progesterone synthesis inhibitor comes in like a big boss and tells the factory workers to stop making so much progesterone.

This can be helpful if someone needs to prevent pregnancy or treat certain medical conditions like endometriosis. It's like turning off a switch to stop a certain function in your body. However, it's important to take this medication only under the guidance of a doctor as it can have some side effects and may not be suitable for everyone.
