Buy Rigevidon Contraceptive Pills Online

Rigevidon, is a popular and effective contraceptive pill. It has two ingredients to help prevent ovulation, and also to make it harder for sperm to reach the uterus.

Like with any medication, there are risks involved, and so you should have all your regular check-ups with your own GP each year, to make sure it is safe to continue taking Rigevidon.

Rigevidon is taken once daily, at around the same time each day. Rigevidon is a 21 day pill pack, meaning you take 21 tablets consecutively (starting on day 1 of your menstrual cycle), followed by a 7 day, pill free break.

• What is in Rigevidon?

  Rigevidon is a combined oral contraceptive pill. It contains two synthetic hormones, ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel. These are synthetic versions of the naturally occurring hormones, oestrogen and progesterone.

• How does Rigevidon work?

  Rigevidon works by tricking the body into thinking an egg has been released, by keeping hormone levels high. This prevents an egg from being released into the ovaries each month. The hormones also work by thickening the mucus lining of the womb, making it more difficult for sperm to pass through.

• When do I take Rigevidon?

  Rigevidon is best taken at the same time each day, every day, for 21 days of your cycle. Rigevidon ED comes with an additional 7 inactive pills, which can be taken to help keep track of your pill-free days.

• How long after taking Rigevidon are you protected?

  If you started taking Rigevidon on days 1-5 of your period, you will be protected immediately in your next cycle. If you started taking Rigevidon after day 5, you should use additional contraception measure for SEVEN DAYS, until Rigevidon will offer protection against pregnancy.

• Are Rigevidon and Microgynon the same?

  Yes, Rigevidon, Levest, Microgynon and Ovranette pills all contain exactly the same hormones at the same strength and work in the same way.

• What do I do if I miss a Rigevidon dose?

  If you miss a Rigevidon pill, you should take this as soon as possible, even if it means taking two pills at once. You can then continue taking your pills as normal, and still be protected. For a more detailed look at scenarios, see our missed pill guide.
