Norimin Tablets

Norimin is a type of combined hormonal contraceptive (CHC) known as ‘the pill’, or the combined oral contraceptive pill (COCP). It contains two active ingredients which are synthetic (man-made) forms of naturally occurring female sex hormones. These are ethinyl estradiol (a synthetic form of oestrogen) and norethisterone (a synthetic form of progesterone). CHCs such as Norimin prevent the release of an egg from the ovary (ovulation). They change the mucus in the cervix (entrance to the womb) and the lining in the womb which helps make it difficult for sperm to reach an egg, or for an egg to embed itself in the womb lining.

What is Norimin?

Norimin is a contraceptive pill that is known as a combined oral contraceptive as it contains both estrogen and progestogen hormones. Such contraceptives prevent pregnancy by preventing the release of egg from the ovary during menstrual cycles. The contraceptive action is also aided by changes to the mucus found in the cervix. This contraceptive pill also used in the treatment of irregular, painful and heavy periods.

How Does Norimin Work?

Norimin is made of two active ingredients ethinylestradiol and norethisterone. These are synthetic hormones that are like the natural female sex hormones oestrogen and progesterone. 

In a normal menstrual cycle, the levels of sex hormones fluctuate through each month to aid the process of ovulation. Due to these hormones, an egg Is released from the ovaries (ovulation) and the womb is prepared for pregnancy. If the egg remains unfertilized at the end of the cycle, the hormone levels fall, and lining of the womb is shed which causes menstruation. Combined oral contraceptives like Norimin override this normal menstrual cycle.

The synthetic hormones in the pill make your body think that ovulation has already occurred. This prevents the process of ovulation from occurring. Another way these hormones prevent pregnancy is by increasing the thickness of mucus in the cervix. This prevents the sperm from entering the womb and fertilizing an egg. Norimin can also change the quality of the endometrium to prevent fertilized eggs from implanting to it.
