Mechanism of action

Medroxyprogesterone acetate is a long-acting progestin that prevents pregnancy through multiple mechanisms: it thickens cervical mucus to impede sperm transport, alters the endometrium to prevent implantation, and most importantly, suppresses the luteinizing hormone (LH) surge required for ovulation. The 10 mg formulation is typically used for contraceptive or hormone replacement purposes.
