General Description

Pregn-5-ene-3alpha,17alpha-diol-20-one, also known as 5α-pregnane-3α,17α-diol-20-one, is a naturally occurring steroid hormone and metabolite of progesterone. It plays a key role in the female reproductive system and is involved in the menstrual cycle and fertility. It is also a precursor to the formation of other steroid hormones, such as androgens and estrogens. Additionally, pregn-5-ene-3alpha,17alpha-diol-20-one has been identified as a potential biomarker for certain cancers and metabolic disorders. It is important in maintaining the health and function of the reproductive system and has potential implications for both the diagnosis and treatment of various medical conditions.
