What is Lo/Ovral?
Generic Name: ethinyl estradiol-norgestrel
Other Brand Names:
Lo/Ovral-28, Low-Ogestrel, Ogestrel, Ovral, Ovral-28, ethinyl estradiol-norgestrel, Cryselle 28, norgestrel-ethinyl estradiol, Ogestrel-28
Ethinyl estradiol and norgestrel contains a combination of female hormones that prevent
ovulation (the release of an egg from an ovary). This medication also causes changes in your
cervical mucus and uterine lining, making it harder for sperm to reach the uterus and harder for a
fertilized egg to attach to the uterus.
Ethinyl estradiol and norgestrel is used as contraception to prevent pregnancy.
Ethinyl estradiol and norgestrel may also be used for other purposes not listed in this
medication guide.
