    Femodene Contraceptive Pill

    Femodene Contraceptive Pill is a combined oral contraceptive, also called the pill. It contains two types of female hormones: an oestrogen, ethinylestradiol, and a progestogen, gestodene in a low dose. [caption id="attachment_265512" align="alignleft" width="228"]Femodene Pills Femodene Pills[/caption] Taking the Femodene contraceptive pill protects you against getting pregnant in three ways. These hormones:
    • Stop the ovary from releasing an egg each month
    • Thicken the fluid making it more difficult for the sperm to reach the egg.
    • Alter the lining of the womb to make it less likely to accept a fertilised egg
    Femodene contraceptive pill is a twenty one day pill, with one being taken each day for twenty one days, followed by seven days of taking no pill.

    Femodene Effectiveness

    Femodene effectiveness can be altered by a number of varying factors, but if taken correctly and on time it’s more than 99 percent effective. Factors such as vomiting two hours after taking the pill can alter Femodene effectiveness. If any vomiting occurs, another femodene contraceptive pill should be taken as soon as you feel better. Along with vomiting, other factors including diarrhoea and other medication can interfere with femodene effectiveness.

    Benefits Of Femodene

    When taking the femodene pill you may notice some benefits of femodene:
    • Considered one of the most reliable reversible methods of contraception if used correctly
    • It doesn’t interrupt sex
    • Typically makes periods less painful, lighter and more regular
    • Can help with any pre-menstrual symptoms such as mood swings, headaches, tiredness etc.
    It’s important to understand the benefits of femodene and risks of taking the femodene pill. It’s generally safe for most healthy women but isn’t suitable for everyone. If you have any questions regarding the benefits of femodene, please speak to your doctor or pharmacist.

    Femodene Reviews

    Below will be some Femodene reviews and reviews left by customers who have used our website and service. To view more Femodene reviews and overall service reviews, click here to view our trustpilot page. ‘After months of problems with Microgynon and Gederel, taking Femodene was a relief. It cleared up my incredibly problematic skin in very little time, and reduced the troublesome and constant spotting I had between periods. It also had a dramatic and positive impact on my anxiety and low moods. Since taking Femodene, I cannot recall waking up in tears and struggling mentally in the way I was with Microgynon.’ Anonymous I changed to this pill after microgynon had given me hormonal acne and it has helped a lot. Overall I think it is great. Whilst my periods are heavy the first 2 days, they disappear/are very minimal for the remaining 3. The only downside I have had is feeling a bit depressed around my period, but nothing too extreme. It has also increased my sex drive which I lost whilst taking microgynon. Anonymous

    If you are unsure about how you will react to some of the femodene pill ingredients, ask your doctor or pharmacist about responses and allergic reactions.

    Femodene Composition

    The main ingredients that make up the femodene composition are its two active ingredients, Gestodene and ethinylestradiol. Gestodene is sold under the brand names Femodene and Minulet among many others. It’s almost exclusively available in combination with an estrogen, such as ethinylestradiol. First discovered in 1975, Gestodene was introduced for medical use in 1987 and is reffered to as a “third generation” progestin. The other part of Femodene composition, Ethinylestradiol, is an estrogen medication. Used in combination with a progestin, they work together to prevent pregnancy. For more information about femodene composition, click here to view the patient information leaflet.

    Femodene Side Effects

    Like with all medicine, Femodene Side Effects can occur but these aren’t experienced by everyone. If you experience any of these Femodene side effects, especially if any of them are getting progressively worse, immediately stop and speak to your doctor as soon as possible. Below is a list of Femodene Side Effects experienced more, or less when people have taken femodene contraceptive pill. For a full list, please refer to the patient information leaflet.

    Femodene And Weight Gain

    Femodene and weight gain is indeed one of the many side effects you can experience when taking Femodene pill. This may not be experienced by everyone who decides on taking the Femodene pill as their pill of choice. It is however a commonly reported side effect and other options may have to be considered if this is of concern. The reason some contraceptive pills cause Femodene and weight gain is because of the ingredient called Estrogen. In high doses, Estrogen can cause weight gain due to an increased appetite and fluid retention. More recent updates to birth control have reduced the amount of hormones, so weight gain is not a likely problem many women will come across. If you have any further questions about Femodene and weight gain, including its other various side effects, please do not hesitate to speak to your doctor or pharmacist.

    Femodene Vs Yasmin

    [caption id="attachment_265516" align="alignleft" width="202"]Yasmin Tablets Yasmin Tablets[/caption] There are many combination pill alternatives out there and one of the comparisons that will be made is Femodene vs Yasmin. When comparing Femodene vs Yasmin, the first difference that stands out are the active ingredients. They both contain Ethinylestradiol 30mgs, but differ when it comes to the progestin. Whilst Yasmin contains 3mgs of Drospirenone, Femodene contains Gestodene 75mgs. Choosing the right pill for you, whether it’s Femodene vs Yasmin or Desogestrel, Lucette etc. is important and can affect how you feel short-term and long-term. Discuss with your doctor or pharmacist if Femodene vs Yasmin vs other combined pills are the best choice for you.

    Millinette And Femodene

    Millinette and Femodene when compared at 30/75 strength, are the same and both contain ethinylestradiol and gestodene. Choosing the best pill for you can be difficult with the amount of options available, Millinette and Femodene are two, more recently, “updated” combination pills. Gestodene is a relatively new progestin and is the most potent on a per weight basis in regard to progestational effects. Your doctor may be apprehensive at first when choosing both Millinette and Femodene because of how new Gestodene is and our understanding of its side effects.

    Femodene Missed Pill

    If for any reason you forget and have a Femodene missed pill, follow the below guide: If you are less than twelve hours late with a Femodene missed pill, take it straight away. Keep taking the pill at the usual time. This may mean taking two pills in one day. This should not affect your contraceptive protection. If you are more than twelve hours late with a pill, or have missed more than one pill, protection may be reduced or be completely gone.
    • Take the most recently Femodene missed pill as soon as you remember, even if it means taking two at once. Leave any earlier missed pill in the packet
    • Continue to take a pill every day for the next seven days at the usual time
    • If the end of the strip is reached during these seven days, start taking the next strip without taking the usual seven day break
    • Use extra protection, such as condoms, for seven days after missing a pill

    Difference Between Femodene And Femodette

    What is the difference between femodene and femodette? Chemically, there are very similar oral contraceptives, both are combined pills with the same hormones and have the same 21 day period. However, due to proportionally less of the oestrogen hormone, Femodette may help reduce some of the side effects that can be experienced. The best way to decide the difference between femodene and femodette is to speak to your doctor or pharmacist and come to a decision on what’s best suited for you, personally.

    Femodene Alternative

    Femodene contraceptive pill is one of many different contraceptives we have available at My Pharmacy. Before changing contraceptives you should consult with your doctor and try to find the best Femodene alternative for you. You may want to consider some of the following as a Femodene alternative:
  • Combined Pill

    The combined oral contraceptive pill is usually just called “the pill”. It contains the female hormones oestrogen and progesterone, which women produce naturally in their ovaries.
    The Combined pill is over 99% effective at preventing pregnancy.

    The usual way to take the pill is to take one every day for 21 days, then stop for seven days, and during this week you have a period-type bleed. You start taking the pill again after seven days.
    You need to take the pill at around the same time every day. You could get pregnant if you don’t do this, or if you miss a pill, or vomit or have severe diarrhoea.

    Some medicines may make the pill less effective. Check with your doctor if you’re taking any other tablets.
    If you have heavy periods or painful periods, PMS (premenstrual syndrome) or endometriosis the combined pill may help.

    The pill does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs), so using a condom as well will help to protect you against STIs.

    How the combined pill works

    1) prevents the ovaries from releasing an egg each month (ovulation).
    2)thickens the mucus in the neck of the womb, so it is harder for sperm to penetrate the womb and reach an egg
    3)thins the lining of the womb, so there is less chance of a fertilised egg implanting into the womb and being able to grow

    There are many different brands of pill, made up of three main types:

    Monophasic 21-day pills
    This is the most common type. Each pill has the same amount of hormone in it. One pill is taken each day for 21 days and then no pills are taken for the next seven days. Microgynon, Marvelon, Yasmin and Cilest are examples of this type of pill.

    Phasic 21-day pills
    Phasic pills contain two or three sections of different coloured pills in a pack. Each section contains a different amount of hormones. One pill is taken each day for 21 days and then no pills are taken for the next seven days. Phasic pills need to be taken in the right order. Logynon is an example of this type of pill.

    Every day (ED) pills
    There are 21 active pills and seven inactive (dummy) pills in a pack. The two types of pill look different. One pill is taken each day for 28 days with no break between packets of pills. Every day pills need to be taken in the right order. Microgynon ED is an example of this type of pill.

    Follow the instructions that come with your packet. If you have any questions, ask your GP, practice nurse or pharmacist.

     

    What to do if you miss a pill

    If you continue to be sick, keep using another form of contraception until you’ve taken the pill again for seven days without vomiting.

    Who can use the combined pill
    If there are no medical reasons why you cannot take the pill, and you don’t smoke, you can take the pill until your menopause. However, the pill is not suitable for all women. To find out whether the pill is right for you, talk to your GP, practice nurse or pharmacist.

    You should not take the pill if you:

    are pregnant
    smoke and are 35 or older
    stopped smoking less than a year ago and are 35 or older
    are very overweight
    take certain medicines (ask your GP or a health professional at a contraception clinic about this)

    You should also not take the pill if you have (or have had):

    thrombosis (a blood clot) in a vein, for example in your leg or lungs
    stroke or any other disease that narrows the arteries
    anyone in your close family having a blood clot under the age of 45
    a heart abnormality or heart disease, including high blood pressure
    severe migraines, especially with aura (warning symptoms)
    breast cancer
    disease of the gallbladder or liver
    diabetes with complications or diabetes for the past 20 years

     

    Risks of taking the combined pill
    There are some risks associated with using the combined contraceptive pill. However, these risks are small and, for most women, the benefits of the pill outweigh the risks.

    Blood clots
    The oestrogen in the pill may cause your blood to clot more readily. If a blood clot develops, it could cause:

    deep vein thrombosis (clot in your leg)
    pulmonary embolus (clot in your lung)
    stroke
    heart attack
    The risk of getting a blood clot is very small, but your doctor will check if you have certain risk factors that before prescribing the pill.

    The pill can be taken with caution if you have one of the risk factors below. It is unlikely you would be advised to take it if you have two or more risk factors.
    These include:

    being 35 years old or over
    being a smoker or having quit smoking in the past year
    being very overweight (in women with a BMI of 35 or over, the risks of using the pill usually outweigh the benefits)
    having migraines (you should not take the pill if you have severe or regular migraine attacks, especially if you get aura or a warning sign before an attack)
    having high blood pressure
    having had a blood clot or stroke in the past
    having a close relative who had a blood clot when they were younger than 45
    being immobile for a long time – for example, in a wheelchair or with a leg in plaster
