Next, we will discuss the characteristics of NET-EN, another
progestin-only injectable contraceptive, known commercially
as Noristerat or Norigest. Women using NET-EN receive a deep
intramuscular injection once every two months at a dose of 200 milligrams.
NET-EN is less widely used and less widely studied than DMPA.
However, its characteristics are very similar to those of DMPA.
We will first summarize the ways in which NET-EN and DMPA are
similar, and then describe the ways in which they differ.
