Difference between Progesterone and Ulipristal acetate

Progesterone vs. Ulipristal acetate

Progesterone (P4) is an endogenous steroid and progestogen sex hormone involved in the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and embryogenesis of humans and other species. Ulipristal acetate, sold under the brand name Ella among others, is a medication used for emergency birth control and uterine fibroids.
