How Does It Work?

This medication is a combination of 2 hormones, an estrogen (ethinyl estradiol) and a progestin (drospirenone). This product works mainly by preventing ovulation during the menstrual cycle. It also makes vaginal fluid thicker to help prevent fertilization and changes the lining of the uterus to prevent attachment of a fertilized egg.

The contraceptive effect of combined oral contraceptives (COCs) is based on the interaction of various factors, the most important of which are seen as the inhibition of ovulation and the changes in the cervical secretion.
