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

Veikia pagal

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.

No

Šalutinis poveikis

Common side effects include acne, changes in weight, and headaches. Note on bleeding: It is very common with Zoely to have irregular bleeding or no bleeding at all (amenorrhea) during the placebo days. This is usually harmless and not a sign of pregnancy (provided you took the pills correctly), but if you miss two consecutive periods, consult a doctor. As with all combined pills, there is a small risk of blood clots.

Dažniausiai užduodami klausimai

When should I start taking the pill?

You should preferably start taking Zoely on the first day of your menstrual bleeding. You are then protected against pregnancy immediately. If you start on days 2–5 of your cycle, you must use extra protection (like a condom) for the first 7 days.

Can I skip or delay my period with this pill?

Yes. To delay your period, finish the 24 white active tablets in your current strip and discard the 4 yellow placebo tablets. Start the white tablets from a new strip the very next day. This allows you to skip the withdrawal bleed. You may experience some spotting during the second strip.

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

Zoely prevents pregnancy but does not protect against HIV or other sexually transmitted infections. You should always use condoms to protect against STIs.

Which medications can reduce the effectiveness of this pill?

Certain medications can interfere with Zoely, including treatments for epilepsy (e.g., carbamazepine, phenytoin), tuberculosis, HIV, and herbal remedies containing St. John’s Wort. Always inform your prescriber of any other medicines you are taking.

Can I take this pill while breastfeeding?

No. Zoely is generally not recommended for use during breastfeeding. Although it contains natural estradiol, it can still affect milk production. Consult your doctor for a progesterone-only alternative.
