Norethisterone acetate (NETA), also known as norethindrone acetate is a progestogens medication that is widely used in birth control pills, menopausal hormone therapy, and for the treatment of gynecological disorders as abnormal uterine bleeding and endometriosis. There is a lack of detailed histological information regarding the effects of NETA on the uterine structure. So, the present study focuses on the uterine histological, histochemical and ultrastructure changes following the exposure to NETA in the albino rats. To do this aim, fourteen adult female albino rats were used. They were randomly divided into two equally groups: Control group and NETA treated group. Albino rats of control group were administered daily food, water and orally distilled water only, while rats of NETA treated group were administered daily orally 20 µg of NETA dissolved in 2 ml distilled water, food, and water. The experiment was continued for three weeks.
