Etonogestrel binds with high affinity to the progesterone and estrogen receptors in the target organs. From the target organs, they include the female reproductive tract, mammary gland, hypothalamus, and pituitary. Once bound, this drug changes the synthesis of different proteins which in order decreases the level of gonadotropin-releasing hormone and the luteinizing hormone.
Etonogestrel is administered in subdermal implants as long-acting reversible contraception. It is known to be effective in postpartum insertion including breastfeeding women. Etonogestrel is part of the long-acting contraceptive implants that prevent pregnancy. The implant's effect can remain for 5 years.
