Ovral L Tablet 21

Ovral L Tablet is used primarily as an oral contraceptive to prevent pregnancy. Beyond contraception, it is frequently prescribed to manage abnormal uterine bleeding, endometriosis, and hormonal imbalances. It is also effective in treating polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and reducing excessive hair growth (hirsutism) in women.

Ovral L tablet is available in a pack containing 21 tablets.

Tablets must be taken in the order directed on the package every day at about the same time.

One tablet is to be taken daily for 21 consecutive days then a 7-day tablet-free interval.

Each subsequent pack is started on the day after the tablet-free interval.

A withdrawal bleed usually starts on days 2-3, after the last active tablet, and may not have finished before the next pack is started.

Ovral L Tablet is taken orally, which means it is swallowed with a glass of water. It should not be taken in any other way.

Ovral L Tablet contains two active ingredients, ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel. This medicine works by employing a combination of effects from its active ingredients:

Suppression of ovulation: Ovral L Tablet helps prevent pregnancy by inhibiting the release of an egg from the ovaries.

Thinning of the uterine lining: It reduces the thickness of the inner lining of the uterus, making it less receptive to implantation.

Changes in cervical mucus: Ovral L Tablet alters the consistency of cervical mucus, making it difficult for sperm to enter the uterus and fertilize an egg.

These combined actions of ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel significantly reduce the chances of pregnancy when taken correctly as prescribed by your healthcare professional.
