Microgynon, from Bayer, is a combination of hormone and oral contraceptive for women. The pill contains the yellow-body hormone, progestin, and estrogen, in small doses. These ingredients are active substances. This birth control pill is the first ovulation inhibitor in the world with only 0.03 milligrams of estrogen. Microgynon user-reports are quite positive and the product is prescribed widely worldwide.

The micro-pill is mainly used to prevent pregnancy. However, you may use it for other health benefits, such as:

• Lighter, less painful menstruation
• Regular menstrual bleeding
• Reduced short-term changes of menopause

Through its two synthetic hormones, the micro-pill prevents ovulation from occurring. Also, it thickens the cervical mucus, blocking the sperms to get through the uterus. These two actions combined guarantee you a 99% protection against pregnancy.

Take the pill once a day with water; if possible, always at the same time of day. Continue the treatment for 21 consecutive days, and after that take a seven-day break. All pills contain the same dose of hormones, so it’s important to not miss one, as it will increase your chances of getting pregnant. We advise you to set an alarm or take it at a specific time, for example, when you wake up.

In case you forget to take a Microgynon dose, take it as soon as you remember, even if you have to take two pills very close to one another. If many hours have passed since you forgot, for instance, 12 hours, use another contraceptive method (i.e. condom).
