Progesterone is a steroid hormone synthesized from the cholesterol derivative, pregnenolone, in the cortex of the adrenal gland.
It is secreted by the corpus luteum and acts to prepare the endometrium for the implantation of a fertilized egg.
During pregnancy, it is secreted by the placenta in order to prevent spontaneous abortion and to stimulate the development of mammary tissue to produce milk.
Progesterone is also available as a pharmaceutical that can be used to treat menstrual disorders and for the prevention of miscarriage.
