2937.23.10.50 - Other

This category encompasses steroidal hormones that are derivatives or structural analogues of estrogens and progestins, specifically those not obtained directly or indirectly from animal or vegetable materials. Unlike substances derived from natural sources, the products classified here are typically synthesized through chemical processes. This distinction is crucial for accurate tariff classification, as it differentiates between naturally occurring or extracted compounds and their laboratory-produced counterparts.

This "Other" designation serves as a residual category within the "Estrogens and progestins" subheading. It is distinct from directly identified substances such as progesterone (HTS 2937.23.10.20), which has its own specific classification. Therefore, items falling under 2937.23.10.50 are steroidal compounds that exhibit estrogenic or progestogenic activity but are not explicitly named and are not of natural origin.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions. Classification within this code is based on the definitive criteria of being a steroidal hormone, a derivative or analogue of estrogens or progestins, and critically, being synthesized or not derived directly from natural biological sources. This excludes substances that may have similar functions but are produced through different means or belong to different chemical classes.
