Nyna has typical effects of a progestogen and converts the endometrium from the proliferative to the secretory phase. It may also have some oestrogenic, anabolic and androgenic activities, but these may not be significant. Nyna delays onset of periods and controls abnormal uterine bleeding. It also has contraceptive effects due to negative feedback inhibition of pituitary gonadotropin thus preventing ovulation.

May cause additive fluid retention with NSAIDs, vasodilators. Adjustment in antidiabetic, thyroid hormone and anticoagulant therapy may be required.
Pregnancy Category X. Studies in animals or human beings have demonstrated foetal abnormalities or there is evidence of foetal risk based on human experience or both, and the risk of the use of the drug in pregnant women clearly outweighs any possible benefit. The drug is contraindicated in women who are or may become pregnant.
