PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Levonorgestrel & Quinestrol Tablets combine two potent hormonal agents to offer a highly effective, long-acting oral contraceptive solution. Levonorgestrel, a synthetic progestin, works primarily by preventing ovulation and altering the endometrial lining. Quinestrol, a long-acting estrogen analogue, enhances the efficacy and extends the contraceptive duration of action.

This synergistic combination allows for reduced dosing frequency compared to conventional daily contraceptives.

This dual-hormone formulation is particularly suited for population health programs and women seeking convenient, longer-term pregnancy prevention with minimal compliance burden.
