Had Unprotected Sex? Don't Panic!

If you think your contraceptive may have failed for whatever reason or you have been vomiting (therefore your estrogen level that month has not been kept high enough to prevent ovulation) - all is not lost so stay calm. Here are some brand names of "low dose" birth control pills :

LoOvral contains 0.03 mg ethinyl estradiol and and 0.3 mg nogestrel

Nordette contains 0.03 mg ethinyl estradiol and 0.15 mg levognorgestrel

Keeping hormones at a consistent level in your body is the job of oral contraceptives so that you do not ovulate, your uterine lining thins and your cervical mucous thickens. These three events work together to prevent pregnancy.

Pills such as ALESSE and MIRCETTE are called 'ultra low dose' pills as they contain only 0.02mg of estrogen. Some of these side effects include breast tenderness, headache and nausea.

The amount of perfection could be superior with Diane-35 as patients in Canadian acne study usually well thought-out Diane-35â to be more successful for curing acne than Tricyclenâ.

2. That kind of treatment where hormone activity will be interrupted is known as hormonal acne treatment.

What is referred to as the hormonal acne treatment requires the preparation and the intake of oral contraceptives like Diane-35, Tri-Cycle, Alesse and Yasmin. There is also a non-contraceptive anti-androgen called spinolactone. Diane 35 is effective in reducing the androgenic hormone levels. This is not available in the US right now but there is a new oral contraceptive that contains the progestin drospirone that is now available in the market and this is considered as the drug with fewer side effects if compared to the Diane 35/Dianette. These two drugs can be used when the blood test of the patient will suggest that she has an abnormal level of androgens.

What is the dose of Alesse?

You take one Alesse pill each day, preferably at the same time - irregularity in the taking of Alesse will increase your risk of getting pregnant.

Always use Alesse according to the dose prescribed by your doctor and never take it upon yourself to change this or take more, without consulting him/her first! All changes in lifestyle can affect how our body reacts so be sensible and be aware of the differences between 'normal' and abnormal reactions that may be solely due to your medications.
