  <description>Norgestimate is an organic compound with the formula C23H31NO3 and an average molecular weight of 369.50 g/mol. Norgestimate belongs to the steroid esters, a subclass of steroids and steroid derivatives within the organic compounds.

This compound is found in or released from healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and veterinary products, specifically progestogens and estrogens in combination and hormonal contraceptives for systemic use. The recorded route of exposure for this substance is oral. Regarding its biological activity, norgestimate acts as an agonist or partial agonist of three protein targets: the progesterone receptor (PGR), the estrogen receptor (ESR1), and the androgen receptor (AR).</description>
