Estarylla is a combination oral contraceptive pill that is commonly prescribed to women to prevent pregnancy. It contains a combination of two hormones, ethinyl estradiol and norgestimate, which work together to prevent ovulation, thicken cervical mucus to prevent sperm from reaching the egg, and thin the lining of the uterus to prevent implantation of a fertilized egg.
When taken correctly, Estarylla is highly effective in preventing pregnancy, with a failure rate of less than 1%. It is important to take the pill at the same time every day to maximize its effectiveness. It is also important to follow your healthcare provider’s instructions and to not skip any doses.
In addition to preventing pregnancy, Estarylla may also help regulate menstrual cycles, reduce menstrual cramps, and make periods lighter and more regular. Some women may also experience improvements in acne while taking Estarylla.
Like all medications, Estarylla may cause side effects in some women. Common side effects may include nausea, breast tenderness, headaches, and changes in weight. These side effects are usually mild and tend to improve over time. However, if you experience severe or persistent side effects, it is important to contact your healthcare provider.
Estarylla is not suitable for everyone, and your healthcare provider will need to assess your medical history and individual risk factors before prescribing this medication. It is important to discuss any concerns or questions you may have about Estarylla with your healthcare provider before starting this medication.
