Σύντομη περίληψη

Τύπος φαρμάκου

Combined hormonal contraceptive (CHC) containing an oestrogen (ethinylestradiol) and a progestogen (levonorgestrel).

Λειτουργεί από

By preventing ovulation, thickening cervical mucus, and altering the lining of the uterus, Levonorgestrel / Ethinylestradiol works on multiple levels to prevent pregnancy. These hormonal actions mimic the body’s natural processes to maintain a stable hormonal balance and prevent the release of an egg. This multi-target approach provides reliable and well-tolerated contraceptive protection when used regularly and according to instructions.

Ενεργό συστατικό

Drospirenone/Ethinylestradiol

Αποτελεσματικό εντός

When started on the first day of your period, Yasmin is effective immediately. If the first tablet is taken on another day of the cycle, an additional contraceptive method (such as condoms) should be used for the first 7 days to ensure full protection.

Γενόσημο;

No

Παρενέργειες

Common side effects include nausea, breast tenderness, headaches, and mood fluctuations. A specific benefit of Yasmin is that it causes less water retention (bloating) than older pills. Important: Yasmin carries a slightly higher risk of blood clots (venous thromboembolism) compared to older pills like Microgynon, though the overall risk remains low. If you notice swelling in a leg, chest pain, or difficulty breathing, seek medical attention immediately.

Λεπτομέρειες φαρμάκου

Περιγραφή

Yasmin είναι ένα σύγχρονο συνδυασμένο από του στόματος αντισυλληπτικό χάπι που είναι πάνω από 99% αποτελεσματικό στην πρόληψη της εγκυμοσύνης. Ξεχωρίζει από τα παλαιότερα χάπια λόγω του συγκεκριμένου προγεσταγόνου συστατικού του: Δροσπιρενόνη.

Σε αντίθεση με τα συστατικά των τυπικών χαπιών, η Δροσπιρενόνη μιμείται στενά την φυσική προγεστερόνη του σώματος. Έχει ήπιες διουρητικές ιδιότητες, που βοηθούν στην αντιμετώπιση της κατακράτησης υγρών, αποτρέποντας το φούσκωμα και την αύξηση βάρους που συχνά συνδέονται με τα ορμονικά αντισυλληπτικά. Επιπλέον, λόγω της αντι-ανδρογόνου δράσης της, το Yasmin έχει κλινικά αποδεδειγμένη ικανότητα να μειώνει την ακμή και την παραγωγή λιπαρότητας, καθιστώντας το προτιμώμενη επιλογή για γυναίκες που αντιμετωπίζουν ατέλειες στο δέρμα.

Συστατικά

Drospirenone (3 mg) and Ethinylestradiol (0.03 mg). Excipients: Lactose monohydrate, maize starch, pregelatinised maize starch, povidone K25, magnesium stearate, hypromellose, macrogol 6000, talc, titanium dioxide (E171), iron oxide yellow (E172).

Παρενέργειες

Nausea, headaches, breast tenderness, mood changes, or light breakthrough bleeding between periods may occur.
Less commonly: weight gain, reduced libido, irritability, or digestive disturbances.

Serious but rare side effects include deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience leg pain, sudden shortness of breath, or chest pain.

Προειδοποιήσεις

Levonorgestrel / Ethinylestradiol carries certain risks that users should be aware of. The use of combined hormonal contraceptives may increase the risk of blood clots, particularly in smokers or women with a family history of clotting disorders. Users who experience chest pain, sudden shortness of breath, or unusual headaches should seek medical advice immediately.

This medicine may also affect blood pressure and should be used with caution in women with a history of cardiovascular disease. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should not use this pill. Always consult a healthcare professional before starting or restarting treatment.

Συχνές Ερωτήσεις

When should I start taking the pill?

For immediate protection, start taking Yasmin on the first day of your natural period. You are then protected straight away. If you start on any other day, you must use extra protection (like condoms) for the first 7 days.

Can I skip or delay my period with this pill?

Yes. You can delay your period by starting the next strip of Yasmin immediately after finishing the current one, without taking the 7-day break. You will remain protected against pregnancy. You may experience some spotting or breakthrough bleeding during this second strip, but this is normal.

Does this pill protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs)?

No. Yasmin only prevents pregnancy. It does not offer protection against HIV or other sexually transmitted infections. You should use condoms to protect against STIs.

Which medications can reduce the effectiveness of this pill?

Some medications can make Yasmin less effective, including medicines for epilepsy (e.g., primidone, phenytoin, carbamazepine), tuberculosis (e.g., rifampicin), HIV infections, and herbal remedies containing St. John’s Wort. Always disclose your full medication history to your prescriber.

Can I take this pill while breastfeeding?

No. Yasmin is generally not recommended during breastfeeding as it may reduce the amount of milk produced. Consult a doctor for non-hormonal alternatives or progesterone-only pills ("minipills").
