Summary Twenty‐nine patients with advanced ovarian carcinoma were treated with a high‐potency progestogen. A response was observed in 15 out of 23 who received adequate treatment with this hormone. It is suggested that progestogens offer a safe alternative to non‐hormonal chemotherapy for the advanced case and that further trials should be undertaken.
