How does Lybrel work?
Lybrel, an oral contraceptive comprises of lower doses of sex hormone estrogen and progesterone. Intake of Lybrel enables lining of your uterus not to go through the changes required for monthly periods. As a result, it offers you relief from unwanted pregnancy and painful monthly menstrual cycle.
It is taken in 28 days pack. The pills inject low levels of sex hormones into your body daily. As a result, the linings of your uterus do not respond to the changes essential for initiation of monthly period. However it does not mean that you will never have menstrual cycle again. If you had regular menstrual cycle earlier there will be no disorder to it after stopping taking these pills. Another reason behind Lybrel’s positive impact on avoiding pregnancy and monthly cycle is its impact on cervical mucus. Intake of Lybrel has the capacity to alter your cervical mucus.
As result, sperms find it hard to penetrate into uterus. Change in the lining makes the uterus less receptive towards embryo. Though intake of Lybrel will help you in avoiding monthly cycle, some women might experience minor bleeding. You are advised to consult your doctor before taking Lybrel for birth control.
