Description

Logynon is a combined oral contraceptive pill (‘the Pill’). You take it to stop you getting pregnant. Logynon contains two types of female sex hormones, oestrogen (ethinylestradiol) and progestogen (levonorgestrel). These hormones stop you getting pregnant by working in three ways: by preventing an egg being released from your ovaries; by making the fluid (mucus) in your cervix thicker, which makes it more difficult for sperm to enter the womb; and by preventing the lining of your womb thickening enough for an egg to grow in it.

Logynon is a 21-day pill – you take one each day for 21 days, followed by 7 days when you take no pills.

The benefits of taking the Pill include:

▪ it is one of the most reliable reversible methods of contraception if used correctly
▪ it doesn’t interrupt sex
▪ it usually makes your periods regular, lighter and less painful
▪ it may help with pre-menstrual symptoms.

Logynon will not protect you against sexually transmitted infections, such as Chlamydia or HIV. Only
condoms can help to do this.

Logynon needs to be taken as directed to prevent pregnancy.

Uses / Instructions

Take Logynon every day for 21 days then have seven pill-free days

Repeat this process
