Gestoden is a synthetic 3rd generation progestin that is used as a hormonal contraceptive for birth control.

It is a selective, strong antigonadotropic pro gestagen . The antigonadotropic effect is about three times stronger than that of levonorgestrel . It is the only progestagen that has an aldosterone antagonistic effect, which is due to its high affinity for the progesterone receptor . It also has a minimal residual androgenic effect and a weak anti-estrogenic effect. Gestoden is only available in combination with ethinylestradiol in the form of dragees, tablets and plasters.

properties

Gestodene occurs in two polymorphic crystal forms. Form II is thermodynamically stable at room temperature. At 36 ° C it transforms enantiotropically into form I. Form I then melts at 197 ° C.
