Zelleta is a progestogen-only pill containing desogestrel 75 micrograms. Unlike traditional mini pills, which mainly work by thickening cervical mucus, Zelleta also reliably inhibits ovulation. This dual mechanism makes it one of the most effective progestogen-only contraceptive pills available.
\nThe suppression of ovulation means there is no egg available for fertilisation, while the thickened cervical mucus makes it harder for sperm to pass through the cervix and reach the womb. Together, these mechanisms ensure consistent and effective pregnancy prevention when taken daily.<\/p>\n
Zelleta is ideal for women who cannot or prefer not to take oestrogen-based contraception. It is particularly suitable for women who are breastfeeding, smokers over 35, or those with oestrogen-related side effects. Other benefits include:
\nReliable contraceptive protection<\/p>\n
No oestrogen-related risks<\/p>\n
Safe during breastfeeding<\/p>\n
Fewer hormonal fluctuations than combined pills<\/p>\n
Continuous use with no break required between packs<\/p>\n
Zelleta offers simplicity and discretion. It is taken once a day, at the same time each day, with no pill-free interval. This consistency helps reduce hormonal variation and may lead to lighter, less painful periods \u2014 or periods may stop entirely over time.<\/p>\n
It is essential to take Zelleta at the same time every day. If taken more than 12 hours late, contraceptive protection may be reduced. In such cases, a barrier method should be used for the following 7 days. Irregular bleeding, spotting, or missed periods are common when starting Zelleta but usually settle after a few months. If you experience persistent or severe side effects, contact your healthcare provider.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
