Gestronol (BAN), also known as gestonorone, as well as 17α-hydroxy-19-norprogesterone or 17α-hydroxy-19-norpregn-4-ene-3,20-dione, is a steroidal progestin of the 19-norprogesterone and 17α-hydroxyprogesterone groups that was never marketed.[1][2][3] The C17α acetate ester of gestronol, gestonorone caproate (gestronol hexanoate), in contrast, has been marketed.[1][2][3]
