Formulations and methods for providing progestin-only contraception to a woman while minimizing various side effects, such as breakthrough bleeding, that are normally associated with progestin-only contraception are disclosed and described. In one aspect, the method can include transdermally administering a formulation having a contraceptively effective amount of a single progestin as the sole active hormonal agent to the woman as part of a contraceptive regimen. |
