“Progynova”… that’s a really great name. Naming things is hard so I always appreciate a good name when I see one
Could you elaborate on what makes the name a good one?
In my opinion, it ends in nova and the transition from prog to nova with the y is just 🤌
Ah, other commenters beat me to saying what I was going to say regarding the semantics.
But also, it’s a unique artificially created word. Nobody is going to confuse it for anything else (granted, that might get murky with pharmaceuticals). It’s searchable with any piece of software that does simple string matching. Also, it isn’t itself a constituent of some other longer word, which helps with that kind of thing too.
The spelling of the word is also phonetically logical. Being a new artificially created word, they could’ve spelled it however they wanted, but they chose the spelling that reads how it sounds. Very few people are going to hear it spoken and misspell it if they’re typing it into some device.
Yeah… that sums it up
I read it as pro-gyn-nova
- Pro: as in professional/effective
- Gyn: woman (from Proto-Indo-European *gwen), like in gynocology
- Nova: new (in many romance languages)
It rolls off the tongue and encapsulates three important aspects. I’m sure there are other readings of it too.
ah yes, professional woman creation serum.
I think it’s more pro like the prefix meaning “for.”
So it would roughly mean “for new woman”

Indiana waiting for Texas and Florida to ban it so it can do something more extreme but without any flak.
That explains so much
