Description

Pregnanediol is a chief steroid metabolite of progesterone that is biologically inactive and occurs as pregnanediol glucuronate in the urine. Pregnanediol has two hydroxyl groups, at 3-alpha and 20-alpha. A test can be done to measure the amount of pregnanediol in urine. The urine test offers an indirect way to measure progesterone levels in the body. It is a standard in the colorimetric determination of urinary pregnanediol in clinical laboratories.
