WHAT LOGYNON ED
IS USED FOR
Logynon ED is a combined
oral contraceptive, commonly
known as a “birth control pill”
or “The Pill”.
Logynon ED is used to prevent
pregnancy.
You may also experience the
following benefits:
more regular, shorter and
lighter periods
a decrease in anaemia (iron
deficiency)
a decrease in period pain
Some conditions such as pelvic
inflammatory disease, ovarian
cysts, ectopic pregnancy,
fibrocystic breast changes, acne
and cancer of the uterus
(womb), ovaries may be less
common in women taking the
Pill.
When taken correctly, Logynon
ED prevents you from
becoming pregnant in several
ways including:
inhibiting the egg release by
stopping it maturing
changing the cervical mucus
consistency making it more
difficult for the sperm to
reach the egg
changing the lining of the
uterus making it less suitable
of implantation.
When the Pill is taken by
women under close observation
in clinical trials, it is more than
99% effective in preventing
pregnancy.
