Information On The Norgeston Mini Pill

Norgeston is a popular contraceptive pill, which falls under the category of progestogen only pill. This pill consists of a single synthetic hormone of progestogen as its chief ingredient. The synthetic hormone present in this pill as its chief ingredient is levonorgestrel. Combined pill, a counterpart of the progestogen only pill or a mini-pill, contains oestrogen along with progestogen and works in three different ways to prevent pregnancy. A mini-pill, on the other hand, works in just two ways to prevent a woman from conceiving.

Norgeston mini-pill is the only pill that works just like a combined pill despite the absence of a synthetic oestrogen in the pill. First, the Norgeston is a mini-pill and works to prevent ovulation, a process that occurs when an egg ripens and is released from your ovaries. This is the process that no other mini-pill except for Norgeston and Cerazette can carry out. Second, this pill prevents fertilisation of an egg by thickening the mucous present in the neck of your womb. Norgeston mini-pill makes it difficult for a sperm to travel from your vagina to the womb for fertilising an egg.

 

Finally, the womb lining is prevented from becoming thick, which does not facilitate a fertilised egg for implantation and further growth. This pill may give you the benefit of reduction in menstrual pains that you experience. It also greatly reduces the risk of side effects in comparison to a combined pill. Norgeston also reduces the risk of developing cancers of endometrium and ovary. This pill also gives you the benefit of relief from PMS symptoms that you might be suffering from.
