Cyproterone acetate operates by inhibiting the binding of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) to its receptors in the body, reducing the overall effects of androgens. This leads to a decrease in the excessive growth of body hair, improvement in acne conditions, and helps in the management of prostate cancer by controlling the growth of cancerous cells that require androgens to grow. In conjunction with its anti-androgen effects, cyproterone also has progestogen properties, making it effective for use in combination therapies for hormonal management and contraception in women.

Description

Cyproterone acetate belongs to a group of medications known as anti-androgens, which work by blocking the effects of male hormones (androgens) in the body. This medication is used in various conditions related to the overproduction of androgens or where the reduction of androgen effects is desired. Cyproterone acetate is used to treat conditions such as severe acne in women, hirsutism (excessive body hair), and in men with prostate cancer. By reducing the action of androgens, cyproterone acetate helps to control the progression of these conditions, offering symptomatic relief and preventing further complications.
