Noriday is a progestogen only contraceptive pill, which most people know it as the mini pill. These contraceptive pills are used to help women prevent unwanted pregnancy. Noriday is suitable for most women and it is a very reliable form of contraception. These mini pills contain norethisterone, which is the synthetic version of the hormone progesterone. Noriday works by thickening the cervical mucus which ultimately prevents sperm from entering the womb. In some women, Noriday may also help prevent ovulation. Noriday pills do not contain oestrogen, which make them suitable for women who are sensitive to oestrogen based contraception. Noriday can be taken by women after childbirth and also suitable for those who are breastfeeding.
