Research Context

How does Tibolone work?
Tibolone is metabolised into three active compounds with differing receptor activity: two oestrogenic metabolites (relieve vasomotor symptoms and protect bone) and one progestogenic/androgenic metabolite (protects endometrium and may improve libido). Does not significantly stimulate breast tissue in the same way as standard HRT.
