Progestogen for Endometrial Cancer

The endometrium undergoes cyclic changes. During the follicular phase, under the influence of estrogen, it proliferates, whereas after ovulation, under the influence of progesterone, the endometrium undergoes secretory changes. If pregnancy does not occur at the end of the cycle, once the support of the corpus luteum subsides, menstruation follows and a new cycle begins. If this cyclic function is disrupted, abnormal changes in the endometrium may follow. When the endometrium is exposed to unopposed estrogen, it continues to proliferate, and hyperplasia with cellular atypia may develop. If left untreated, this condition may give rise to endometrial cancer.

You might remember hormones from your sex-crazed teen years. Or your partner’s most recent crying jag. But if you’re sitting there smugly thinking that you’re immune from hormonal chaos just because you’re (a) no longer a teenager and (b) male, think again. In fact, if you knew all the ways hormones could mess up your life, you’d probably start crying. Off-kilter hormone distribution can make you store too much fat, hamper your ability to fight stress, and cause you to eat when you’re full. It can lead to metabolic syndrome and diabetes and can adversely affect your sleep and sex life.
