Clinical Trial: Progesterone and Muscle Protein Synthesis in Premenopausal Women (MP4-MPS)

U.S., Sept. 16 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07173361) titled 'Progesterone and Muscle Protein Synthesis in Premenopausal Women (MP4-MPS)' on Sept. 07.

Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if micronized progesterone (PROMETRIUM(R)) influences the muscle-building response to resistance exercise in healthy premenopausal women aged 18-30 years.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

1. Does progesterone change the rate of muscle protein synthesis after exercise?

2. Does progesterone alter the difference in synthesis between an exercised leg and a rested leg?

Researchers will compare micronized progesterone to a placebo to see if progesterone changes the way skeletal m...
