Cerazette Tablets

Cerazette is a daily progesterone-only contraceptive pill (POP), also known as the mini pill, formulated to prevent pregnancy in women of childbearing age. It is often recommended for those who cannot take oestrogen, such as breastfeeding mothers or women with certain health risks like high blood pressure or a history of thrombosis. Unlike older mini pills, Cerazette offers superior ovulation suppression, making it one of the most effective progestogen-only options available. It provides continuous, hormone-based protection without the need for monthly breaks.

How It Works
Cerazette contains 75 micrograms of desogestrel, a synthetic version of the natural hormone progesterone. It works primarily by inhibiting ovulation — preventing the release of an egg from the ovaries. In addition, it thickens cervical mucus, which makes it difficult for sperm to enter the uterus and fertilise an egg. The endometrial lining also becomes less receptive to implantation. These combined mechanisms offer reliable contraception when the pill is taken daily at the same time without interruption.

Why Choose Cerazette
Cerazette is an ideal contraceptive solution for women seeking a reliable, hormone-only method of birth control without the risks associated with oestrogen. It is especially suited for women who are breastfeeding, have cardiovascular risk factors, or are over the age of 35 and smoke. Because Cerazette consistently prevents ovulation, it offers a higher efficacy rate than traditional mini pills. It may also result in lighter periods or the complete absence of bleeding, which many users find convenient. With a no-break, daily format, Cerazette provides straightforward and dependable protection that integrates easily into everyday routines.

Important Note
Cerazette must be taken at the same time every day to maintain its effectiveness. If a pill is missed by more than 12 hours, contraceptive protection may be reduced, and additional precautions may be required. It does not protect against sexually transmitted infections. Women with a history of breast cancer, liver disease, or unexplained vaginal bleeding should not use Cerazette. Before starting, switching, or restarting this medication, consult a doctor or pharmacist to confirm suitability and discuss any potential interactions or health considerations.
