✔️ Norix 1 – Emergency Contraceptive

Norix 1 is an emergency contraceptive for women, designed to prevent unintended pregnancy when taken within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse. It is not intended for regular contraception and is commonly referred to as the Post-Coital Pill or Morning-After Pill. The active ingredient in Norix 1 is Levonorgestrel.

✔️ Understanding the Menstrual Cycle & Contraception
  • The menstrual cycle is the time between two menstrual periods, typically lasting 28 days but varying among women.
  • Ovulation occurs around the middle of the cycle when an ovary releases an egg. However, it can happen at any time.
  • If sperm meets the egg, fertilization can occur, leading to pregnancy if the fertilized egg implants in the uterus.
✔️ Types of Contraception:
  • Prevents ovulation (e.g., birth control pills)
  • Blocks fertilization (e.g., condoms)
  • Stops implantation (e.g., intrauterine devices - IUDs)
✔️ Important Considerations:
  • Emergency contraception like Norix 1 works by delaying ovulation or preventing implantation if taken in time. However, if implantation has already occurred, it will not be effective.
  • If you do not use regular contraception, consult a doctor for advice on a suitable birth control method.
  • If you have unprotected sex, you may also be at risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) or HIV. If unsure of your partner's health status, consult a doctor for early testing and treatment.
  • For future protection, use effective contraception and practice safe sex to prevent pregnancy and infections.
✔️ Pharmacology of Norix 1 (Levonorgestrel):
  • Levonorgestrel suppresses hormone signals that trigger ovulation by binding to progesterone and androgen receptors.
  • It slows the release of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), preventing the luteinizing hormone (LH) surge that causes ovulation.
  • This prevents egg release from the ovary, making it most effective when taken before ovulation.
