There are two types of tablets in a pack. This does not mean that the amount of hormones that are necessary for contraception varies from pill to pill. βDimiaβ is, first of all, a monophasic preparation; in this regard, the proportion of protective components is the same everywhere. The tablets that you need to drink before and after menstruation are not similar in composition.
"Dimia" is a contraceptive, tablets containing ethinyl estradiol with drospirenone affect ovulation. They do not allow the egg to mature, and therefore fertilization does not occur. In addition, they control the processes occurring in the endometrium. In addition to hormonal ingredients, Dimia also contains auxiliary substances in the form of starch, magnesium stearate and lactose.
So-called placebo are those pills that are taken directly during menstruation. These are, first of all, dummies that do not contain a portion of hormonal shock. Their goal is to systematize the drug in order not to miss the start of a new cycle of taking pills from a new box. A placebo is completely harmless provided that the patient is not allergic to their components, from which these pills are prepared. Lactose along with cellulose and magnesium stearate are the main products from which these pacifiers are prepared.
