Sex Differences, Hormones & Smoking Cessation

Summary

Data suggest that progesterone may improve smoking cessation outcomes perhaps by reducing impulsive behavior. However, the clinical literature on this topic is lacking. Therefore, in Project I we are proposing a double-blind randomized controlled trial to assess the role of exogenous progesterone on impulsivity and smoking cessation in a sample of males and females who are motivated to quit smoking.
