What is Norelgestromin?
|
|
Norelgestromin
and ethinyl estradiol transdermal system (patch) is
used to prevent pregnancy.
|
|
|
|
How does Norelgestromin work?
|
|
Norelgestromin
is a progestin and ethinyl estradiol is an estrogen.
Estrogen and progestin are two female sex hormones.
Norelgestromin and ethinyl estradiol contraceptive
patch works by preventing the release of eggs from
the ovaries (ovulation) and changing the cervical
mucus and the lining of the uterus. The
contraceptive patch is a very effective method of
birth control, but it does not prevent the spread of
AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases.

Norelgestromin
mode of action
|
|
Norelgestromin
and ethinyl estradiol transdermal system comes as a
patch to apply to the skin. One patch is applied
once a week for 3 weeks, followed by a patch-free
week. Follow the directions on your prescription
label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist
to explain any part you do not understand. Use the
contraceptive patch exactly as directed.
|
|
|
If
you are using the contraceptive patch for the first
time, wait for the first day of your menstrual
period to apply the first patch. You may choose to
start applying the patch on the first Sunday after
your period begins. If you begin applying the patch
after Day 1 of the menstrual cycle, you must use a
backup method of birth control (such as a condom
and/or a spermicide) for the first 7 days of the
first cycle.
|
|
|
A new patch should always be applied on the same day
of the week (the Patch Change Day). Apply a new
patch once a week for 3 weeks. During Week 4, do not
apply a patch, and expect to begin your menstrual
period. On the day after Week 4 ends, apply a new
patch to start a new 4-week cycle. You should not go
more than 7 days without a patch.
