Question 1

What is Microgynon?

Answer

Microgynon is a combined hormonal contraceptive that can be used to prevent pregnancy. This form of contraception will not protect you against STIs, only a condom has that capability. Microgynon contains ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel and these hormones prevent your ovaries from releasing an egg. This form of contraception will make it difficult for an egg to implant itself in the womb’s lining and will also make it difficult for the sperm to find the egg.

We advise that all of our patients seek the advice of either their doctor or prescriber before they begin their Microgynon treatment. This is to ensure that you receive the correct treatment for you.

Question 2

How does Microgynon work?

Answer

Microgynon prevents your ovaries from releasing an egg. This pill also inhibits sperm from being able to find the egg and will make it difficult for an egg to implant itself into an individual’s womb lining.

We advise that all of our patients seek the advice of either their doctor or prescriber before they begin their Microgynon treatment. This is to ensure that you receive the correct treatment for you.

Question 3

What is the active ingredient in Microgynon?

Answer

The active ingredients in Microgynon are ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel.

We advise that all of our patients seek the advice of either their doctor or prescriber before they begin their Microgynon treatment. This is to ensure that you receive the correct treatment for you.

Question 4

How do you take Microgynon?

Answer

When taking this pill you should take one pill every day for 21 days and preferably at the same time each day. You should not crush the pill but instead swallow it whole and with water. You should take a break from this pill every so often but should seek advice from either your doctor or prescriber to find out when this should be.

Question 10

What's the difference between Microgynon and ellaOne?

Answer

Microgynon contains two active ingredients, which are ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel whereas ellaOne contains ulipristal as its active ingredient.

ellaOne stops progesterone from working normally, which then causes the delayed release of an egg. ellaOne is also referred to as the morning-after pill but is not effective if you have ovulated.

We recommend that all of our patients consult either their doctor or prescriber they buy and take Microgynon or any form of contraceptive. This is to ensure that they receive the correct treatment for them.

Question 11

Why should you buy Microgynon?

Answer

Microgynon can prevent unwanted pregnancy. It is a combined pill that some patients may prefer over progesterone-only pills.
