To add to article

Basic information (which anyone visiting this article might expect to find here) to add to this article, in order to help make it more properly encyclopedic: the etymology/origin of the word "turkesterone." 98.123.38.211 (talk) 23:28, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Couldn't find a specific source for the origin of the name, but the plant from which it is extracted - Ajuga turkestanica - is native to the region of Central Asia in the approximate current location of Turkey, (hence, the "turkestanica"), according to Kew.
