Background
A description of the experience
Megestrol acetate (MGA) (INN, USAN, BAN, JAN) (brand names Megace, Megace ES), also known as 17α-acetoxy-6-dehydro-6-methylprogesterone, is a steroidal progestin of the 17α-hydroxyprogesterone group that is used in the treatment of breast and endometrial cancer and as an appetite stimulant. It is the 17α-acetate ester of megestrol, which, in contrast to MGA, was never marketed for clinical use. The term megestrol is often inappropriately used as a synonym for MGA, and when it is used, it almost always refers to MGA rather actually than megestrol.
