Medicine Description gynera 0.075mg
Gynera 0.075mg Tablets is a medication that combines ethinylestradiol and gestodene, which work synergistically to prevent ovulation. Ethinylestradiol, a synthetic estrogen, inhibits the release of gonadotropins from the pituitary gland, which in turn prevents the ovarian follicles from maturing and releasing eggs. Gestodene, a progestin, enhances the contraceptive effect by thickening the cervical mucus, thereby obstructing sperm passage. Together, these hormones alter the endometrial lining, making it less receptive for implantation, should fertilization occur. This multi-faceted approach ensures effective prevention of pregnancy.
