1. WHAT IS THE MEDICINE INTENDED FOR?
DIAMILLA is used to prevent pregnancy.
THERAPEUTIC
GROUP:
Progestogens,
hormonal
contraceptives.
∙ There are two main kinds of hormonal contraceptive.
- The combined pill, “The Pill”, which contains two types
of female sex hormones: estrogen and progestogen.
- The progestogen-only-pill, POP, which does not contain
estrogen.
∙ DIAMILLA is a progestogen-only-pill )POP or a mini-
pill(.
∙ DIAMILLA contains a small amount of one type of female
sex hormone, the progestogen DESOGESTREL.
∙ Most POPs work primarily by preventing the sperm cells
from entering the womb, but they do not always prevent
the egg cell from ripening, which is the main way that
combined pills work.
∙ DIAMILLA is different from most POPs in that its dosage,
in most cases, prevents the egg cell from ripening. As a
result, DIAMILLA is a highly effective contraceptive.
∙ In contrast to the combined pills, DIAMILLA can be used
by women who cannot take estrogen and by breastfeeding
women.
∙ Its disadvantage is that irregular vaginal bleeding may
occur during use of DIAMILLA. On the other hand, you
may not experience any bleeding at all.
