Absorption of Pellets of Progesterone

Abstract
Data on the absorption rates of pellets of progesterone subcutaneously implanted in subjects were obtained in 14 instances. The pellets were of 3 sizes, 50, 150 and 200 mgs. Of the recovered pellets, 9 were of the 50-mg. size, 3 of 150-mg. size and 2 of the 200-mg. size. The pellets remained in situ from 35 to 166 days. Ten of the 14 pellets recovered showed an avg. absorption of about 20%/mo. for the first 3-4 mos.
