Amadinone

Amadinone (INN), also known as 19-norchlormadinone, is a steroidal progestin of the 19-norprogesterone and 17α-hydroxyprogesterone groups that was synthesized and characterized in 1968 but was never marketed.[1][2] It has antigonadotropic properties, and for this reason, is a functional antiandrogen.[3][4] An acetate ester, amadinone acetate, also exists, but similarly was never marketed.[1]
