D008234	Lynestrenol	A synthetic progestational hormone used often in mixtures with estrogens as an oral contraceptive (CONTRACEPTIVES, ORAL).	19-Norpregn-4-en-20-yn-17-ol, (17alpha)-,Ethinylestrenol,Exluton,Linesterol,Linestrenol,Lynestrenol, (9 beta, 10 alpha,17 alpha)-Isomer,Lynoestrenol
D008535	Megestrol	A progestational hormone used most commonly as the acetate ester. As the acetate, it is more potent than progesterone both as a progestagen and as an ovulation inhibitor. It has also been used in the palliative treatment of breast cancer.	17-Hydroxy-6-methylpregna-3,6-diene-3,20-dione,Pregna-4,6-diene-3,20-dione, 17-hydroxy-6-methyl-
D008593	Menopause	The last menstrual period. Permanent cessation of menses (MENSTRUATION) is usually defined after 6 to 12 months of AMENORRHEA in a woman over 45 years of age. In the United States, menopause generally occurs in women between 48 and 55 years of age.	Change of Life, Female

As a contraceptive (CONTRACEPTIVE AGENTS), it has usually been administered in combination with MESTRANOL.	19-Norpregn-5(10)-en-20-yn-3-one, 17-hydroxy-, (17alpha)-,Norethynodrel, (8 alpha)-(+-)-Isomer
