WHAT MARVELON 28 IS TAKEN FOR Marvelon 28 is a combined oral hormonal contraceptive, commonly known as a ‘Birth Control Pill’ or ‘the Combined Pill’ that has been prescribed to prevent you from getting pregnant. Oral contraceptives are a very effective method of birth control. When taken correctly (without missing tablets) the chance of becoming pregnant is very low. Marvelon 28 consists of 21 large white tablets, each containing 2 active ingredients: 30 micrograms of ethinyloestradiol (an oestrogen) and 150 micrograms of desogestrel (a progestogen) and 7 small white inactive tablets (first row of the strip). Because of the small amounts of different female hormones in the active tablets, Marvelon 28 is considered a low-dose combined oral contraceptive. Marvelon 28 prevents pregnancy in several ways: It inhibits the egg release by stopping it maturing; Changing the cervical mucus consistency making it difficult for sperm to reach the egg; and Changing the lining of the uterus making it less suitable for implantation. The following non-contraceptive health benefits have been associated with the Combined Pill: Your periods may be lighter and shorter. As a result, the risk of anaemia may be lower. Your period pains may become less severe or may completely Đọc toàn bộ tài liệu
