Lynestrenol
Lynestrenol is a synthetic progestogen, classified as a hormonal contraceptive. It exerts its contraceptive effect through the inhibition of ovulation and the modification of cervical mucus, making it difficult for sperm to penetrate.
Lynestrenol tablets are taken orally, once a day at the same time each day. The recommended starting dose is one tablet per day for 21 days, followed by a 7-day tablet-free interval. Treatment may begin on the first day of the menstrual cycle or on the first Sunday following the start of the menstrual cycle.
Common side effects of Lynestrenol include:
