Zoely

Description

Zoely is a contraceptive pill that is used to prevent pregnancy.

• All 24 white film-coated tablets are active tablets that contain a small amount of two different female hormones. These are nomegestrol acetate (a progestogen) and estradiol (an oestrogen).
• The 4 yellow tablets are inactive tablets that do not contain hormones and are called placebo tablets.
• Contraceptive pills that contain two different hormones, like Zoely, are called ‘combined pills’.
• Estradiol, the oestrogen in Zoely, is identical to the hormone produced by your ovaries during a menstrual cycle.
• Nomegestrol acetate, the progestogen in Zoely, is derived from the hormone progesterone. Progesterone is produced by your ovaries during a menstrual cycle.
