Sprintec is a combination medication that contains 2 hormones: norgestimate (a progestin) and ethinyl estradiol (an estrogen). These 2 hormones work together to prevent pregnancy by:
Preventing your ovaries from releasing eggs
Changing the mucus in your cervix to make it harder for the sperm to enter the uterus (womb)
Changing the lining of the uterus so it's more difficult for a fertilized egg to implant
