Question 2

What is Microgynon?

Accepted Answer

Microgynon 30 is a monophasic combined oral contraceptive pill used primarily to prevent pregnancy. It is also highly effective at regulating the menstrual cycle, managing heavy periods, dysmenorrhoea, premenstrual syndrome (PMS), and acne.

Question 3

What are the active ingredients in Microgynon?

Accepted Answer

Each tablet contains ethinylestradiol (30 micrograms), a synthetic oestrogen, and levonorgestrel (150 micrograms), a synthetic progestogen.

Question 4

How does Microgynon work?

Accepted Answer

Microgynon prevents pregnancy by stopping ovulation (preventing the release of an egg), thickening cervical mucus to block sperm, and thinning the womb lining so a fertilised egg cannot easily implant.

Question 5

How should I take Microgynon?

Accepted Answer

Swallow one tablet whole with water at the same time every day for 21 consecutive days. Following this, take a seven-day break where no pills are taken, during which you will experience a withdrawal bleed. Start your next pack on the eighth day.

Question 6

What are the side effects of Microgynon?

Accepted Answer

Common side effects include nausea, headaches, breast tenderness, and mood swings. These often settle after the first few months. Rare but serious risks include an increased risk of blood clots.

Question 7

What should I do if I miss a Microgynon pill?

Accepted Answer

If you miss one pill, take it as soon as you remember, even if it means taking two pills at once. If you miss more than one pill, your protection may be reduced, and you should use additional contraception like condoms for the next seven days.

Question 8

Can I use Microgynon to delay my period?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can delay your period by skipping the seven-day break and starting your next pack of Microgynon immediately after finishing the current one.

Question 9

Does Microgynon protect against STIs?

Accepted Answer

No, Microgynon only protects against pregnancy. To protect yourself from sexually transmitted infections (STIs), you should always use a barrier method such as a condom.
