Combined Pill For Unplanned Pregnancy

Since the introduction of hormonal contraceptive methods, women have found it easier to control their sex lives, especially where contraceptive accidents are considered. Oral contraceptive pills, one of the hormonal contraceptive methods, have become the most popular and effective method for preventing unplanned pregnancy for women. Other hormonal contraceptive methods are contraceptive rings and patches, which have been found to be gaining popularity at a gradual pace as well. The oral contraceptive pills have been divided into two categories of combination pills and mini pills based on the artificial female hormones present in the pill. Dianette – A combination pill Dianette is one of the most popular and widely used combination pills, and has been proven to be almost 100% effective in preventing women from getting pregnant. Being a combination pill, it consists of two artificial female hormones of ethinylestradiol (oestrogen) and cyproterone acetate (progestogen) as its active ingredients. It works in three ways for preventing pregnancy in women. It prevents eggs from being produced, prevents sperm from entering the womb by thickening the cervical mucus and lastly by altering the womb lining so that even if an egg is produced and fertilized, it cannot attach itself and grow further. Yasmin – A combination pill Yasmin is the most popular combination pill used by women as a means of contraception for preventing pregnancy. It has been proven to be almost 100% effective in protecting women against pregnancy.
