Gestonorone acetate, or gestronol acetate, also known as norhydroxyprogesterone acetate, is a progestin of the 19-norprogesterone and 17α-hydroxyprogesterone groups which was developed in the early 1960s but was never marketed.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] It is the C17α acetate ester of gestronol (17α-hydroxy-19-norprogesterone).

Gestonorone acetate has been found to consistently inhibit ovulation at an oral dosage of 10 mg/day in combination with 50 μg/day oral ethinylestradiol.[15] Weak or no endometrial effects were observed at an oral dosage of 100 mg/day, basal vacuoles appeared at 130 to 140 mg/day, and full endometrial secretory transformation occurred at 220 mg/day.[16]

Nach oraler Verabreichung von 100 mg des Hydroxy-nor-ProgesteronAcetats sah man nur schwache oder noch keine gestagene Wirkung am Endometrium (Abb. 3). Nach der oralen Dosis von 130- 140 mg traten basale Vacuolen auf, nach 220 mg war - außer bei einer Patientin mit individuell geringerer Ansprechbarkeit des Endometriums (2) - eine volle sekretorische Umwandlung erreicht: [...]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
