Aygestin (Norethindrone) is a medication commonly prescribed to treat a variety of gynecological conditions. It is used to treat endometriosis, amenorrhea, abnormal uterine bleeding, and other medical issues related to the reproductive system.
Norethindrone belongs to a class of drugs called Progestin. It works by preventing the buildup of the uterine lining during the menstrual cycle and by inducing hormone changes in the uterus to restore normal menstrual periods. It acts primarily by preventing ovulation and thickening cervical mucus.
Aygestin is a medication used for birth control to prevent pregnancy. It is a synthetic form of the hormone progesterone, naturally produced by the body. It can be used alone or with other medications. Aygestin must not be used to test for pregnancy, as progestins are not effective in preventing miscarriages.
