What is Levonorgestrel Tablets?

Levonorgestrel tablets are a high-dose, high-efficiency progesterone-value Chinese medicine preparation, generally used as a contraceptive. Generally, one tablet should be taken within 72 hours after unprotected sexual intercourse. The contraceptive effect can reach 70%-80%. The key to its effectiveness lies in the faster the medication is taken, the better; if the drug is used frequently, the effect may be reduced to a certain extent. Therefore, everyone must use the medicine strictly according to the schedule, which is generally a common problem when levonorgestrel is used as a contraceptive. Levonorgestrel can also be used as a medicated ring, namely Mirena, which can be placed into the uterine cavity to treat intrauterine diseases, such as preventing the recurrence of uterine intrauterine polyps, endometrial hyperplasia, endometriosis or adenomyosis. Its application range is becoming increasingly wide.

Levonorgestrel tablets are contraceptive pills and are analyzed using Yuting characteristics in clinical medicine. If it is Yuting, it is recommended to take one tablet within 72 hours after intercourse, and another tablet at 12 o'clock, which has a better contraceptive effect. If it is Jin Yuting, you can take one tablet orally within seventy-two hours after intercourse. No matter which kind of medicine is used, it is impossible to achieve 100% contraceptive effect. If there is no plan to get pregnant, it is best to use condoms for contraception during the entire sexual process, which is safer and has fewer side effects. Levonorgestrel tablets have relatively serious side effects, which may cause withdrawal bleeding, non-menstrual bleeding in the vagina, or cause menstrual disorders, so they should be taken with caution.

The following side effects may occur with levonorgestrel tablets

1. Symptoms similar to early pregnancy reactions such as nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and sleepiness may occur, as well as non-menstrual bleeding; occasional breast tenderness, rash, acne, and weight gain may occur.

2. Breakthrough bleeding and amenorrhea may occur.

3. The composite tablets are more effective in reducing high-density proteins, while the double-photo and triple-photo tablets have less effect. Since the three-photo method reduces the amount of this product used by about 40% per cycle, the occurrence of this side effect can be reduced.

4. Inhibit lactation. Taking the medicine during breastfeeding may reduce milk supply. It should be taken within half a year after giving birth.

5. If taken by women during early pregnancy, it may cause malformed fetuses and liver swelling and pain in newborn babies, so pregnant women should avoid taking it.
