Zoely Contraceptive Pill

Resumo rápido

Tipo de medicamento

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

Obras de

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.

Princípio ativo

Nomegestrol / Estradiol

Eficaz a partir de

When started on the first day of your natural period (Day 1 of bleeding), Zoely is effective immediately. If you start on any other day, you must use an additional barrier method (such as condoms) for the first 7 days of tablet-taking to ensure you are protected.

Efeitos secundários

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.

Detalhes do medicamento

Descrição

Zoely é uma pílula contraceptiva oral combinada de última geração que se diferencia das pílulas tradicionais por usar hormonas "idênticas às do corpo". Contém estradiol, um estrogénio estruturalmente idêntico à hormona produzida naturalmente pelos seus ovários, combinado com acetato de nomegestrol.

Devido a esta composição única, o Zoely é frequentemente prescrito a mulheres que experienciam efeitos secundários com estrogénios sintéticos. Segue um ciclo contínuo de 28 dias (24 comprimidos brancos ativos e 4 comprimidos amarelos inativos). Este regime ajuda a manter níveis hormonais estáveis e normalmente resulta em hemorragias de privação mais curtas e leves, ou por vezes na ausência total de hemorragia.

Ingredientes

Active tablets (White): Nomegestrol acetate (2.5 mg) and Estradiol hemihydrate (1.5 mg). Inactive tablets (Yellow): Placebo (contain no active substances). Excipients: Lactose monohydrate, microcrystalline cellulose, crospovidone, talc, magnesium stearate, colloidal anhydrous silica.

Efeitos secundários

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.

Avisos

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.

Perguntas Frequentes

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.
