Description
In Vitro
Norgestrienone exhibits a moderate gradual decreasing trend in release rate over 365‑day in‑vitro release from silicone rubber capsules, and the initial steroid loading inside the capsule exerts minimal effect on its release rate[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
In Vivo
Norgestrienone (47 mg per silicone rubber capsule; 1-4 capsules) exhibits a dose-dependent contraceptive effect in implant-related studies; implantation of 4 capsules provides contraceptive protection for at least 12-13 months[2].
