The effectiveness of the action desogestrel as confirmed by the low concentration progesterone in the middle menstrual cycle .
Another equally important property of the substance - the ability to increase the density and viscosity of the cervical mucus, which is produced cervical glands . This in turn creates a barrier to passage sperm and prevents fertilize the egg .
Pearl Index for the preparation of 0, 4. This figure reflects the number of pregnancies in a group of thousands of women throughout the year without contraceptives And the reliability of the method Contraception . The lower it is, the more effective is contraceptive .
With regard Laktineta Pearl Index similar to the targets set for contraceptives of the combined type .

Etonogestrel Which is the most active metabolite of desogestrel It has the ability to bind to plasma proteins 95, 5-99%. To a large extent it concerns albumin To a lesser - globular proteins ( globulins ) Responsible for the binding hormones .
The average half-life metabolites of desogestrel is approximately 30 hours. Moreover, its duration is not changed depending on whether or not the reception of a single drug or course (repeated).
The equilibrium concentration observed after 4-5 days after you start taking the tablets.
Withdrawal metabolites as conjugates and free steroid hormone carried out mainly kidney urine. To a much lesser extent, they are derived from the content bowel .
In breast-feeding women etonogestrel misses in milk. The ratio of milk / blood plasma in this case is 0, 37/0, 55. This and the fact that the child receives on average for a day, about 150 ml breast milk per kg of its weight, it can get him or 0, 01 to 0, 05 mg etonogestrel .
