Metabolite Identification
Common NameDesogestrel
DescriptionDesogestrel is only found in individuals that have used or taken this drug. It is a synthetic progestational hormone used often as the progestogenic component of combined oral contraceptive agents. [PubChem]Binds to the progesterone and estrogen receptors. Target cells include the female reproductive tract, the mammary gland, the hypothalamus, and the pituitary. Once bound to the receptor, progestins like desogestrel will slow the frequency of release of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) from the hypothalamus and blunt the pre-ovulatory LH (luteinizing hormone) surge.
