General DescriptionDanazol, 17α-pregna-2,4-dien-20-yno-[2,3-d]isoxazol-17-ol, is a weak androgen that, in spite ofthe 17α-ethinyl group, has little estrogenic or progestogenicactivity. Danazol has been called a synthetic steroidwith diverse biological effects. Danazol binds to sexhormone–binding globulin (SHBG) and decreases the hepaticsynthesis of this estradiol and testosterone carrier.Free testosterone thus increases. Danazol inhibits FSH andLH production by the hypothalamus and pituitary. It bindsto PRs, GRs, ARs, and ERs. Although the exact mechanismof action is unclear, danazol alters endometrial tissueso that it becomes inactive and atrophic, which allowsdanazol to be an effective treatment for endometriosis.Danazol is also used to treat hereditary angioedema and fibrocysticbreast disease.
