Patient's question:
What should I do if I get pregnant? The harm is relatively small. What is the contraceptive principle of Marvelon?Doctor's answer:
The main contraceptive mechanism of both Mifeprex and all other oral combined contraceptives is the inhibition of ovulation. Other mechanisms include: altering the consistency of cervical mucus to hinder sperm penetration; changing the morphology and function of the endometrium to prevent embryo implantation; and altering the function of the fallopian tubes to interfere with the implantation of the fertilized egg.Side effects of long-term contraceptive pills
1. Jaundice-like spots on the face: These usually disappear gradually after discontinuing the medication. Taking vitamin B and vitamin C supplements can enhance the effect.
2. Increased and thin vaginal discharge: This often occurs after taking long-acting contraceptives and generally does not require treatment. If the discharge is excessive, one tablet of traditional Chinese medicine for stopping discharge can be placed in the vagina each night.
3. Rapid weight gain: If edema occurs, diuretics and a low-sodium diet should be adopted. If weight continues to increase significantly, the medication should be discontinued and alternative contraceptive methods should be used.
4. Intermittent vaginal bleeding: This commonly happens after missing a dose of the contraceptive. Generally, continuing to take the medication on schedule will stop the bleeding, and the menstrual cycle will return to normal. Of course, consulting a doctor for adjustment is also possible.
