Mircette (ethinyl estradiol and desogestre) medication that comprises some female hormones that prevent ovulation (the release of an egg from an ovary). This medication also effects changes in your uterine lining and cervical mucus, making it harder for male reproductive cells to attain the uterus and harder for a fertilized egg to affix to the uterus.
Mircette generic (birth-control pills) is a medication that used to prevent or reduce the likelihood of pregnancy or childbirth. Estrogen and progestin are two female sex hormones. Combinations of progestin and estrogen work by preventing ovulation (the release of eggs from the ovaries). They also replace the lining of the uterus to prevent pregnancy from developing and change the mucus at the cervix to prevent male reproductive cells (male reproductive cells) from entering. Oral contraceptives (sucha as Mircette) are a very effective method of birth control, but they do not prevent the spread of human immunodeficiency virus (such as AIDS) and other sexually transmitted diseases.
One type of oral contraceptives is also used to relieve the symptoms of premenstrual dysphoric disorder (physical and emotional symptoms that occur before the menstrual period each month) in women who have chosen to use an oral contraceptive to prevent pregnancy.
Oral contraceptives come in packages of 28, 56, or 84 pills to take by mouth once a day, every day or almost every day of a regular cycle. To avoid nausea, take oral contraceptive medications with milk or food. Take your oral contraceptive pills at the same time every day. Take an oral contraceptive exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it.
