How Should Femilon Be Consumed?

Hello Dr. Good morning. Could you plesae tell me how should i be taking Femilon. It is my first time. Also could you please mention the side effects or any advice which I should keep in mind while I am on the pill. I was diagnosed with an endometriotic cyst. I had a laproscopic cystectomy done in the month of April wherein the doctor just cleaned the area of the ruptured cyst and did not extract it.

Hello dear
Understand your concern
Femilon is newer contraceptive pill and has a fewer side effects.
Femilinon is given to regularize the period in endometriotic cyst and alsoact as contracpetion.
It should be start from the first day of your period (after stop the bleeding) and should be taken continue for 21 days. Remaining 7 days wait for bleeding to come. And start new pack after the period will come from the first day of your cycle.
It should be taken regularly on the same time everyday. So make habit to take it regularly by putting reminder on specific time in mobile.
If you will miss the one tablet then take that tablet as early as possible and 2 tablet simultaneously on nest day. If you will missed two tablet then use barrier contraception for next 7 days to prevent the pregnancy.

Following are minor side effects: nausea, vomiting, weight changes, headache, breast soreness, spotting will occur.
Take on same time every day that decrease the side effects.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
