Lynestrenol, sold under the brand names Exluton and Ministat among others, is a progestin medication which is used in birth control pills and in the treatment of gynecological disorders.[2][3][4] The medication is available both alone and in combination with an estrogen.[3][5][6] It is taken by mouth.[7][8]

Lynestrenol is a progestin, or a synthetic progestogen, and hence is an agonist of the progesterone receptor, the biological target of progestogens like progesterone.[9] It has weak androgenic and estrogenic activity and no other important hormonal activity.[9][10] The medication is a prodrug of norethisterone in the body, with etynodiol occurring as an intermediate.[10][11][12]

Lynestrenol was discovered in the late 1950s and was introduced for medical use in 1961.[13][14] It has mostly been used in Europe and elsewhere in the world and was never marketed in the United States.[6][15][16][17]
