Nestorone is a potent progesterone receptor agonist with no androgenic, estrogenic, or glucocorticoid-like activities.
Nestorone is a potent progesterone receptor agonist with no androgenic, estrogenic, or glucocorticoid-like activities. Nestorone has been used as a female contraceptive, and recent studies inidicate that it may be useful as a male contraceptive as well. It has also been shown to have neurogenic and neuroprotective activity.

To evaluate the prevalence of enlarged ovarian follicles among users of a 20 micrograms/d levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (Mirena, Leiras Oy, Turku, Finland), of subdermal contraceptive implants releasing Nestorone (Population Council, New York, New York) and of the TCu 380A intrauterine
This trial tested the hypothesis that menstrually signaled use of contraceptive vaginal rings ("rings") releasing low-dose combinations of Nestorone (NES) and ethinyl estradiol (EE) would reliably suppress luteal activity and ovulation, and prevent unintended pregnancy, while controlling the incidence of

This study aimed to compare the effects on hemostasis variables of a contraceptive vaginal ring with those of an oral contraceptive. Twenty-three and 22 healthy premenopausal women were randomized to the contraceptive vaginal ring (150 microg Nestorone and 15 microg
The implant containing Nestorone is a promising long-acting contraceptive especially suitable for lactating women. In this study, two experiments were designed to observe the effect of Nestorone on the gonadotropic cells in pituitary of rats for analyzing its antiovulation mechanism.
We examined the clinical performance of contraceptive vaginal rings (rings) delivering Nestorone (NES) progestin and ethinyl estradiol (EE). Ring removal times were signaled by menstrual events. Bleeding patterns, adverse events, patterns of use and continuation rates were the principal parameters
