Ethinyl Estradiol + Norgestrel

Ethinylestradiol (EE) is an estrogen medication which is used widely in birth control pills in combination with progestins.[7][8] In the past, EE was widely used for various indications such as the treatment of menopausal symptoms, gynecological disorders, and certain hormone-sensitive cancers. It is usually taken by mouth but is also used as a patch and vaginal ring.[7][12] The general side effects of EE include breast tendernes...

Does Ovral L responsible for high BP. ## Under certain circumstances, the hormones in oral contraceptives may increase the risk of hypertension, especially in women over 35, women who smoke, or those that have been on them for a long period of time. There is no way, however, to say that it may only have been caused by taking them. Your doctor would have to be the one to help you discover a cause, if there is one and find proper treatment. Are there any other questions?

Hi. I am normally using ovral, but when I went and fetched my new months pills they give me Famynor. I don't know Famynor. They told me it's the same as ovral. Is it true? ## is Famynor and Ovral in the same generic class? Is it the same products just different trade names? ## Hello Channa, I hope you are doing well. According to the NIH famynor and ovral both contain the active ingredient Ethinyl Estradiol .05mg, however, Famynor contains Norgestrel .5mg and Ovral contains Levonorgestrel .25mg. Both medications are used as a contraceptive and decreasing pains and blood loss during certain menstrual conditions. Though the two medications are similar they are technically not the same. Please consult your doctor if you are reacting poorly to ovral and you wish to go back to famyno...

I missed my periods for two months. After ultrasound a cyst measuring 17mm was seen in the uterus. My gynae started me on ovral g for 20 days, once a day. In addition to that I was already taking primosa 1000 mg twice a day and evion and b-long for the last four months. ...I finished the ovral g dose on this Sunday. When will my periods resume? ## It may take 3 to 4 days, have you started your period, yet? The NIH lists its typical side effects as possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, and PMS-like symptoms. How are you doing, now? Has there been any change?

I got my period yesterday and started ovral G y'day night and will continue for next 20 days. Will that stop my bleeding ## It isn't likely if you are new to taking it, you'll likely still have your normal menstrual cycle. Learn more oral contraceptive details here. You may even bleed longer than normal or heavier than normal. Why are you only taking it for 20 days? ## Hi,iam taking overal g tablets last month..now periods started and it's third day..my doc askd to start the pill again from fifth day of my period..my question is shall I take it in third day?is there any problem?? ## Am taking ovral g to stop excessive bleeding from a month...

I have taken OVERAL G thrice in a day for 6 days, as suggested by my doc. Now i am taking the same tab once in a day, but i am experiencing a few drops of blood instead of my full period. Is it severe? What should i do? Please advise me. Would this medicine control my periods? HEARTLY THANKFUL TO YOU. ## Hello, Raina! How are you doing? Well, if your doctor had you taking 3 of them a day for awhile, some breakthrough bleeding should be expected, since this is a hormonal contraceptive. And yes, it should help regulate your cycles, but it may take a couple months for your body to get used to the medication. Are there any other questions or concerns? ## Hallo doctor.I m 32yrs old.

I have been using Nur Isetrate for 8 months and then recently I starting using Ovral for almost two weeks now, I would like to know how long before I'm properly protected by Ovral ## Hello, Mims! How are you? For switching to the Ovral tablets, if you started them while on your period, you would be immediately protected against pregnancy, since they will prevent ovulation this month. However, if you started them at any other time, then you have to take them for one week. Please note that no birth control method, including these, are 100% foolproof. Is there anything else I can help with?

Hi. I've got a loop in but some months get an irregular, non-stop bleeding. The nurse gave me famynor, instead of ovral which they normally use to give me, when this happens. I normally just drink it for 2 or three days until the bleeding stop so did the same with this famynor. But now my period has returned after a week. Should I carry on drinking all the white tablets or what am I to do? Should I be worried or see a dr. about this? ## You can never go wrong getting the opinion of a doctor to be sure what's going on. However, irregular bleeding can be a side effect of your loop, as well as the oral contraceptives the nurse has been having you take to help with it, according to NIH reports. To really get it under control, you usually need to finish the tablets for a few months. ...

Was prescribed for heavy vaginal bleedingand irregular periods. ## HOW WILL PROVERA HELP ME WITH HEAVY BLEEDING, CLOTTING TAKEN IN CONJUNCTION WITH OVRAL? ## Provera contains a synthetic form of Progesterone, which is a hormone vital to the female menstrual cycle. In many cases, issues such as amenorrhea, PMS, PCOS/PCOD and the symptoms associated with perimenopause/menopause are caused by a deficiency in it. Thus, supplementing it back can help correct the issues. You can learn more Provera details here. Since this one is a synthetic form, it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, weight changes and headache. And something such as Ovral is often given to help try to keep your hormones regulated long-term, once you are finished with the Provera. Are there any comments and qu...

Will 1 tablet of ovral G contraceptive work for a single session of sex? Or will my partner need to take it for a longer period of time? We just had sex and not again. Please suggest whether to keep on taking ovral G or if 2-3 tablets are fine to stop pregnancy?
