Buy Yasmin Online
Overview
Yasmin is a combined oral contraceptive pill that contains two hormones: estrogen (ethinyl estradiol) and progestin (drospirenone). Its primary purpose is to prevent pregnancy while also providing additional benefits such as regulating menstrual cycles.
How It Works
Yasmin works by preventing ovulation, which means that no eggs are released from the ovaries. The estrogen and progestin in Yasmin also thicken the cervical mucus, making it more challenging for sperm to reach the egg, and alter the uterine lining to prevent implantation.
Effectiveness
When taken correctly, Yasmin is over 99% effective in preventing pregnancy. With typical use, the effectiveness rate is about 91%. Factors that may influence effectiveness include missed doses, certain medications, and gastrointestinal issues like vomiting or diarrhea.
Indications
Yasmin is recommended for women seeking an effective birth control method. It is suitable for most women of reproductive age, typically starting from around 15 years old. It may also be beneficial for those who experience premenstrual syndrome (PMS) or acne.
