Ovral G 0.5mg+0.05mg (20 Tablets)
Generic for Ogestrel
Active Ingredient Norgestrel Ethinyl Estradiol
Ovral is a brand name for a combination oral contraceptive pill. It contains two active ingredients: ethinylestradiol (a synthetic form of the hormone estrogen) and norgestrel (a synthetic form of the hormone progesterone).
Ovral tablets are used to prevent pregnancy by inhibiting ovulation (the release of an egg from the ovaries), thickening cervical mucus (which makes it harder for sperm to reach the egg), and thinning the lining of the uterus (making it less receptive to a fertilized egg).
If you have been prescribed Ovral tablets, it's important to take them exactly as directed by your healthcare provider.
