What is Lactineth?
The active substance of the drug is desogestrel. This component causes inhibition of ovulation in the female body. This fact was repeatedly confirmed by the absence of a follicle during ultrasound and a decrease in the level of a luteotropic hormone. As a result, the concentration and hormone of progesterone decrease in the middle of the cycle. There is also an increase in the density of cervical mucus, which also prevents the penetration of spermatozoa into the uterine cavity.
How to take Lactineth after a recent birth?
If the woman did not use other oral contraceptives before the use of this drug a month earlier, the medication is started from 1 day of the cycle, 1 tablet daily. It is very important to drink the medicine every day at the same time,
A break between the courses of taking the drug is not provided, i.e. When the tablets come to an end from one package, the woman should continue receiving the next one.
Take Lactineth after birth is necessary, even if there are no menstruation, because the absence of menstruation is not a complete guarantee that ovulation does not occur. The drug does not affect lactation in any way, so it is popular with nursing mothers. Moreover, the reviews of those women who drank Lactineth after childbirth according to the instructions for its use are the most positive.
