Effects - How it works in the body

Min-ovral belongs to the family of oral contraceptives drugs also known as the Pill, OCs, BCs, BC tablets, or birth control pills drug consisting of natural or synthetic estrogens and progestins, similar to the natural sex hormones (estrogen and progesterone) produced in a woman's body active ingredients, which is most commonly, used for the treatment of hormones and prevention of unwanted pregnancy. Min-ovral works by stopping a woman's egg from fully developing each month. The egg can no longer accept a sperm and fertilization is prevented. Although oral contraceptives have other effects that help prevent a pregnancy from occurring, this is the main action. In almost all cases when the medicine was taken properly and an egg develops, fertilization can still be stopped by oral contraceptives. This is because Min-ovral also thickens cervical mucus at the opening of the uterus. This makes it hard for the partner's sperm to reach the egg. In addition, Min-ovral or oral contraceptives change the uterus lining just enough so that an egg will not stop in the uterus to develop. All of these effects make it difficult to become pregnant when properly taking an oral contraceptive.
