What is Cerelle?
Cerelle is used as a hormonal contraceptive. The estrogen-free contraceptive pill is referred to as a so-called mini-pill, because in contrast to the combined preparations, which have two female hormones, it only contains one hormone. The active ingredient,desogestrel, is a synthetic gestagen of the 3rd generation. In addition to the estrogens, the gestagens are among the second important class of female sex hormones, which are classified under the group of steroid hormones. The mini-pill has a very high efficacy and is highly contraceptive at low dose. The hormonal drug contains only 0.075 mg of progestin desogestrel, and can also be taken by nursing women. Here it offers effective protection against becoming pregnant again.
The effect of Cerelle
Desogestrel is a so-called prodrug, in which the gestagenic action is carried out by the active metabolite 3-keto-desogestrel. This substance changes the consistency or thickening of the cervical mucus. Male sperm are therefore no longer in the uterus and also ovulation is suppressed, so the efficacy of the contraception is significantly increased.
