Norgesterone is used to prevent pregnancy. Passim dicitur "mini pill" quia non habet aliquam estrogen. Norgestrel (forma progestin) is a hormone that prevents pregnancy by making vaginal fluid thicker to help prevent sperm from reaching an egg (fecundatio), and changing the lining of the uterus (womb) to prevent attachment of a fertilized egg.
