Patient's question:
My girlfriend just had a miscarriage yesterday, and the doctor told her to take some drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol tablets orally. What is the effect of taking drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol tablets after an abortion?Doctor's answer:
The ethinylestradiol and drospirenone tablets are combined short-acting oral contraceptives containing a formula of estrogen and progestogen. After an abortion, taking ethinylestradiol and drospirenone tablets can serve two purposes: on one hand, it can help regulate menstruation, and on the other hand, it can provide highly effective contraception. It is essential to take ethinylestradiol and drospirenone tablets in a proper manner to achieve good effects in both menstruation regulation and contraception. If taken improperly, it may lead to irregular bleeding and failure in contraception.
