Damara: BOTH african community that uses Hyraceum as medicine AND name of medicine - coincidence?[edit]
- The African community of Damara people use Hyraceum from Procavia capensis as medicine for women, especially for women with period pains, according to my mother who visited the Damara people in Namibia.
- A medicine (baby pill) from medapharma that contains Desogestrel as active agent is also called Damara: http://www.medapharma.de/fileadmin/user_upload/DE/Gebrauchsinformationen/Damara_GI_07_2017.pdf ; https://www.fernarzt.com/produkt/damara/
This coincidence makes me wonder: Could it be that Hyraceum contains Desogestrel? I would be happy about an answer! Thank you in advance. C-Kobold (talk) 13:12, 16 July 2019 (UTC)
