Brief Answer:
You can safely take Tablet Ovral G

Detailed Answer:
Hi there.
I have understood your concern.
I will suggest you the possible treatment options.

As you might be aware that the pills that you are taking currently are combination of two hormones, estrogen and progestogen.

Tablets Ovral G, also contain combination of the same medications.

For your treatment of regularization of the periods, you can very well start tablet Ovral G, as per your schedule.
You can safely take them without any hesitation or any doubts.

I hope this answer helps you.
Please feel free to communicate with me again.
Thanks.

I used to take progyluton on the 5th day of my period. It had 28 tablets
Ovral G says to start taking 20th day, eight days prior my period. So when do I start taking?

Brief Answer:
20days on tablets, 7 days off tablets. Start on 8th day after Progyluton

Detailed Answer:
Hi there.

Thanks for appreciating my answer and reverting back to me.

You are absolutely right, Ovral G contains 20 tablets.
I will suggest that you start taking the Ovral G tablets on the eighth day after you have finished your last Progyluton tablet.
Please take Ovral G tablets once at night for twenty days without missing it.
If you are planning to continue with the same in the future, then just have a seven days pill free interval, and then you can restart the new pack.

I hope this answer helps you.
Please feel free to communicate with me again.
Thanks.
