Norgestrienone (INN) (brand name Ogyline, Planor, Miniplanor; former developmental code name RU-2010), also known as Δ9,11-norethisterone[1] or 17α-ethynyltrienolone (17α-ethynyltrenbolone), as well as 17α-ethynylestra-4,9,11-trien-17β-ol-3-one, is a steroidal progestin related to norethisterone that is used as a hormonal contraceptive, sometimes in combination with ethinylestradiol.[2][3][4][5] It was developed by Roussel Uclaf and is registered for use only in France.[5][6] Under the brand name Planor, it is or was marketed in France as 2 mg norgestrienone and 50 μg ethinylestradiol tablets.[7] Norgestrienone has been found to possess similar affinity for the progesterone receptor and androgen receptor,[8] and in accordance, has some androgenic activity.[9][10][11] The drug was first described in the literature in 1965.[10] Gestrinone is the 13β-ethyl variant or 18-methyl derivative of norgestrienone.[12]
