Tibolone is a synthetic steroid hormone drug, which is fairly non-selective in its binding profile, acting as an agonist at all five of the Type I steroid hormone receptors.[1] It is used mainly for treatment of endometriosis,[2] as well as hormone replacement therapy in post-menopausal women. Tibolone has similar or greater efficacy compared to older hormone replacement drugs, but shares a similar side effect profile.[3][4][5]
