Dermelle

Dermelle (ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone acetate) is a combination oral contraceptive used to prevent pregnancy. It contains two hormones: ethinyl estradiol, an estrogen, and norethindrone acetate, a progestin. Dermelle works by inhibiting ovulation, thickening cervical mucus to prevent sperm from reaching the egg, and altering the uterine lining to prevent implantation.
