General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Marvelon tablets are a type of hormonal combined oral contraceptive pill. It contains two ingredients namely, ethinylestradiol and desogestrel.
Alternatives with same combination birth control pills include: Desogen, Kariva and Mircette.
However, it would be advisable to take opinion from Gynaecologist before changing the brand or mode of contraception.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
