WHAT CLEONITA IS USED FOR
Cleonita is a contraceptive pill
and
is
used
to
prevent
pregnancy.
Each
tablet
contains
a
small
amount of two different female
hormones, namely drospirenone
and ethinylestradiol.
Contraceptive pills that contain
two
hormones
are
called
“combination” pills.
HOW CLEONITA WORKS
Combined
oral
contraceptives
like
Cleonita
work
by
over-
riding
the
normal menstrual
cycle.
In
a
woman's
normal
menstrual
cycle,
levels
of
the
sex
hormones
change
throughout
each
month.
The
hormones cause an egg to be
released
from
the
ovaries
(ovulation)
and
prepare
the
lining
of
the
womb
for
a
possible pregnancy. At the end
of each cycle, if the egg has not
been fertilised the levels of the
hormones
fall,
causing
the
womb lining to be shed as a
monthly period.
The
daily
dose
of
hormones
taken in the pill work mainly by
tricking your body into thinking
that
ovulation
has
already
happened. This prevents an egg
from
ripening
and
being
released from the ovaries each
month.
The hormones also increase the
thickness of the natural mucus
at the neck of the womb, which
makes
it
more
difficult
for
sperm to cross from the vagina
into the womb and reach an egg.
They also change the quality of
the
womb
lining
(endometrium),
making
it
less
likely that a fertilised egg can
implant there.
