Ovranette can also be taken as follows:
Tricycling: Take one pill every day for nine weeks without stopping. Take a 4 or 7-day break after 9 weeks (3 packs of pills) and then restart the cycle.
Take 1 pill every day without missing a dose.
Take 1 pill every day for at least 21 days for a flexible extended use. Take a four-day break if you experience excessive bleeding. Start taking the pill every day on the fifth day, and don’t take another break for at least 21 days.
Ovranette’s hormones (ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel) stop your ovaries from producing an egg (ovulation). They also make it more difficult for sperm to reach an egg or for an egg to implant in the womb lining.
If you start taking Ovranette on days 1-5 of your period, you should be safe from pregnancy right away, assuming you don’t have a short or irregular cycle.
If you have sex after day 1 and have a short/irregular menstrual cycle, you must use condoms for 7 days. If you have sex in the first 7 days, your clinician will be able to tell you if you need to use additional contraception.
Ovranette is 99 percent effective in preventing pregnancy when taken correctly. Approximately 9 out of 100 women will become pregnant if it is not always taken correctly.
You may not be protected against pregnancy if you are vomiting or have severe diarrhoea. Continue to take the pill as usual if this happens, but use a condom while you’re sick. If this lasts longer than 24 hours, you should take the same steps as if you missed a pill.
Please keep in mind that you should only begin Ovranette if you are certain you are not pregnant.
Many women do not have any negative side effects, but some do. Mood swings, headaches, tummy pain, breast discomfort, and feeling sick are just a few examples. Some women develop blood clots or high blood pressure in rare cases.

This is dependent on how many pills are missed and when they are missed. Contraception is not jeopardized by missing one pill at any time. If you miss two or more pills, or if you start a new pack late, your contraceptive coverage may be affected.
If it’s been more than 48 hours since you last took a pill, take the next one as soon as you remember and finish the rest of the pack as usual. This may necessitate taking two pills on the same day.
More than 48 hours – this is dependent on when you took your last pill and where you are in your pill packet. For more information, please see the patient information leaflet.
If you’re breastfeeding, you can start using Ovranette 6 weeks after giving birth.
