Willard Myron Allen (November 5, 1904 – August 15, 1993) was an American gynecologist. He was born in 1904 in Farmington, New York, near Rochester, New York. As an undergraduate student at Hobart College (now Hobart and William Smith Colleges) in Geneva, New York, Allen had studied organic chemistry. This would come in handy for his medical school research that would reserve a special place for him in the annals of medical history. He graduated from Hobart in 1926, and was awarded an honorary D.Sc. degree in 1940 for his medical discoveries at the University of Rochester.

Außerdem war er Chefarzt für Geburtshilfe am Barnes and Allied Hospitals. 1971 ging er in den Ruhestand, wurde aber Professor für Geburtshilfe an der University of Maryland in Baltimore und war von 1976 bis 1982 Associate Dean der Medical School. Ihm gelang (wie gleichzeitig einigen anderen Gruppen), die Isolation von Progesteron (teilweise mit seinem Anatomieprofessor George W. Corner (1889–1981), in dessen Labor für Embryologie in Rochester er als Student mit einem zweijährigen Forschungsstipendium arbeitete, teilweise mit Oskar Wintersteiner). Er war 1942 der erste, der Progesteron therapeutisch anwandte (bei Blutungen des Uterus). Nach ihm und William H. Masters ist das Allen-Masters-Syndrom benannt, nach ihm und Corner die Corner-Allen-Einheit und nach ihm Allen`s blaue Reaktion (Test auf Dehydroisoandrosteron, DHIA). 1940 erhielt er einen Ehrendoktor der University of Rochester. 1935 erhielt er den Eli Lilly Award in Biological Chemistry.

Se graduó de Hobart en 1926 y recibió una licenciatura honorífica. Licenciado en 1940 por sus descubrimientos médicos en la Universidad de Rochester.​ Allen estudió medicina en la Universidad de Rochester y se apoyó a sí mismo trabajando como asistente en su profesor de anatomía, el laboratorio de embriología de George W. Corner. A Corner y Allen se les atribuye el descubrimiento de progestina, el nombre original de progesterona y no debe confundirse con progestágeno, un progestágeno sintético, en 1930 y el primer aislamiento de progesterona en 1933 (descrito a continuación y en WM Allen "My Life with Progesterone ", 2005 abajo). Se graduó con honores en 1932. Allen recibió el primer Premio Eli Lilly en Química Biológica en 1935. Después de varios años de enseñanza en Rochester, Allen fue nombrado profesor y presidente del Departamento de Obstetricia y Ginecología en la Escuela de Medicina en la Universidad de Washington. Louis Contribuyó con artículos originales sobre la histología y la fisiología de los órganos reproductivos femeninos, y le otorgó numerosos premios nacionales e internacionales. Fue el primer graduado de la Escuela de Medicina de Rochester en ser elegido para el consejo de administración de esa universidad. Cuando Allen se unió a la Universidad de Washington en 1940, era el presidente más joven de un departamento clínico. Se desempeñó como presidente durante treinta años hasta su retiro de la Universidad de Washington para aceptar el puesto de Decano de Admisiones en la Escuela de Medicina de la Universidad de Maryland en Baltimore.​ (es)
  • Willard Myron Allen (November 5, 1904 – August 15, 1993) was an American gynecologist. He was born in 1904 in Farmington, New York, near Rochester, New York. As an undergraduate student at Hobart College (now Hobart and William Smith Colleges) in Geneva, New York, Allen had studied organic chemistry. This would come in handy for his medical school research that would reserve a special place for him in the annals of medical history. He graduated from Hobart in 1926, and was awarded an honorary D.Sc. degree in 1940 for his medical discoveries at the University of Rochester. Allen studied medicine at the University of Rochester and supported himself by working as an assistant in his anatomy professor, George W. Corner’s embryology laboratory. Corner and Allen are credited with the discovery of progestin, the original name for progesterone and not to be confused with progestin, a synthetic progestogen, in 1930 and the first isolation of progesterone in 1933 (described below and in W.M. Allen "My Life with Progesterone", 2005 below). He graduated with honors in 1932. Allen received the first Eli Lilly Award in Biological Chemistry in 1935. After several years of teaching at Rochester, Allen was appointed professor and chairman of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Washington University's School of Medicine in St. Louis. He contributed original papers on the histology and physiology of the female reproductive organs, bringing him many national and international awards. He was the first graduate of the Medical School in Rochester to be elected to that university's board of trustees. When Allen joined Washington University in 1940, he was the youngest chairman of a clinical department. He served as chairman for thirty years until his retirement from Washington University to accept the position of Dean of Admissions at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore. Co-discoverer who named the universal pregnancy maintaining hormone progesterone. Considerable space has been devoted to progesterone, but little has been written about its discoverer, Willard M. Allen. The day Allen isolated pure progestin (later named by him progesterone) was a very significant day in his life. "... The isolation of the hormone from the waxy material obtained by high-vacuum distillation was a laborious and exasperating experience. However, the month of May 1933 was a glorious month. On May 5, I had the crystalline corpus luteum hormone. On May 18, my daughter, Lucille, was born. My friends gave me double congratulations and I was sitting on top of the world. ..." (en)
