16-Methylene-17α-hydroxyprogesterone acetate is a progestin of the 17α-hydroxyprogesterone group which was never marketed.[1][2][3][4][5] Given orally, it shows about 2.5-fold the progestogenic activity of parenteral progesterone in animal bioassays.[5] It is a parent compound of the following clinically used progestins:[6][7]
