Composition: Megestrol acetate

A synthetic progestin called megestrol acetate functions by attaching itself to progesterone receptors. It works by preventing the pituitary gland's secretion of gonadotropin hormones (FSH and LH), which suppresses ovulation and lowers the generation of estrogen. It may also stimulate hunger by influencing the hypothalamus and has anti-estrogenic properties, which makes it helpful in controlling weight loss in some diseases like AIDS or cancer.
