One of the most popular birth control pills these days is Jess Plus. The reviews of doctors and those who buy them are positive, and this clearly says a lot. So, what is this drug, how to take it?
About pills
Initially, I would like to say a few words about the drug itself. So, these are tablets that are film-coated. They have a pleasant pink tint, they are round and biconvex. The letter “Z +” is visible on one of their sides. The composition of the drug includes substances such as calcium levomefolate, drospirenone, as well as ethinyl estradiol. These are the main components, but there are also additional ones. There are 24 such tablets in the package.
There are additional ones, there are 4 of them in a pack - they are vitamin, light orange. A total of 28 tablets Jess Plus. Reviews of doctors left about this drug inspire confidence. Many of them are advised to opt for these pills precisely because they have these four vitamin pills. By the way, they are distinguished by the placebo effect. When a girl drinks the first such pill, she should begin a cycle within a short period of time (usually one day). After the fourth pill is taken, the next day you can open a new package of Jess Plus. Reviews of doctors show that this is another advantage of this drug. After all, you do not need to take any breaks, the body will not actually wean from the pills.
Act
What effect does the drug “Plus” have on the female body ? Reviews of doctors who are specialists in this field say that these tablets are quite multifunctional. So, this is a low-dose drug, the difference between which and the other contraceptives is the minimum amount of hormones that make up its composition. Tablets suppress ovulation, increasing the viscosity of the cervical substance.
Another drug normalizes and shortens the cycle, eliminating the pains that a girl may experience during menstruation. It is also possible that a woman will begin to lose weight - this is also the effect of the drug. Peripheral edema will no longer bother her, her face skin will also become better (acne and greasy shine will disappear), her hair will gain beauty. This all happens due to drospirenone. In general, tablets have a positive effect on the whole body - this is their advantage.
Application rules
Now it’s worth talking about how to drink “Jess Plus”. Instructions for use are very simple. A pack is an almost square sticker with a metered dose. Above the first line of capsule tablets is an empty line. There you should stick a strip with the days of the week, which will go parallel to the tablets. Suppose a girl starts drinking them on Wednesday. From the set of stickers (they come with the drug), you need to choose the one where the very first day is Wednesday. And stick it on an empty line. It is very convenient, especially for forgetful girls. So you can control the intake of tablets. And from each of them there is an arrow in the direction of the one that needs to be drunk the next day. In general, don’t worry about how to use Jess Plus.
Instructions for use are not complicated - every day you need to drink one tablet at the same time. If necessary, you can drink a little water. As already understood, one package lasts for 28 days.
Can I skip?
In no case should you skip taking Jess Plus tablets. The instruction for use states that they must be drunk daily, at the same time - with a minimum deviation (possible a little earlier or later, but the difference should not exceed 8 hours). If the pill was missed, then it must be drunk as soon as possible. Otherwise, the effect of the drug is reduced. Everything is simple, so that there is the necessary effect, it is necessary that the active substances enter the body at the same time, as if replenishing the desired balance. Of course, if a girl drinks pills in order to improve the condition of her skin and hair, then missing one thing will not deliver global problems. However, if the goal is to prevent unwanted pregnancies, it is better to set an alarm clock to take the drug in order to avoid unpleasant situations (as some do).
Reception Nuances
On the first day of the menstrual cycle, you need to start drinking Jess Plus. Instructions for use recommend that you do just that - and there will be no failures, and the drug will be absorbed better, faster. Side effects in this case are also unlikely.
But this is not the only nuance worth knowing about. Many girls are interested in the question of whether it is possible to drink contraceptives and alcohol. Yes you can. However, it is worth remembering some points. First, do not abuse strong drinks. Everyone knows that sometimes, as a result, vomiting occurs. A tablet can come out with it. Accordingly, there will be no effect from it. The same if diarrhea occurs. In the latter case, doctors recommend taking another one - it is better to be safe.
A few words are worth saying about age restrictions. The Jess Plus drug does not have such. Instructions, reviews of girls who started taking oral contraceptives at a fairly early age (from 16 years), this is confirmed. Experience shows that the drug is really good and of high quality - since there were no side effects (we are talking about cases where patients previously consulted a doctor and did not decide to start taking pills on their own).
Side effect
Well, now it’s worth touching on a not very pleasant topic regarding Jess Plus tablets. Side effects - it will be discussed about them. Those girls who chose them themselves are unhappy with the pills. Without a doubt, there are those cases in which an independent decision (without passing tests and examining a doctor) is correct, and the drug is suitable for the girl. But this is a matter of chance. You need to know that birth control pills are very serious. Still, they affect the hormonal background. And no matter how high-quality they may be, it is necessary to pass tests so that the doctor personally selects exactly the drug that is suitable for a particular patient. Otherwise, you may encounter side effects.
These are bleeding, bad discharge, nausea, vomiting, headache and discomfort in the abdomen, cycle disruption, weight gain, and mood swings. And this is just a small list of what a girl who herself has chosen Jess Plus can expect. The effect of the drug is really good, but it is for those to whom these tablets are suitable.
Indications
“Jess Plus” - hormone pills that are shown to those girls who suffer from hormone-dependent fluid retention. This is found in many, by the way. They are also great for treating mild acne. If a girl has folate deficiency, these pills are also made for her. And they are also indispensable if a woman suffers from a severe form of premenstrual syndrome. And finally, the most important and, as a matter of fact, the main effect, as well as an indication in combination, is contraception. In this regard, Jess Plus is one of the most reliable drugs in the whole world.
Contraindications
But these tablets are not recommended for those girls who suffer from thrombosis (no matter which one - arterial or venous). Ischemic attacks or angina pectoris are also contraindications. Still, if a girl often overcomes migraines, then she should not start drinking these pills either. The same thing if a woman has diabetes.
There are a number of contraindications: liver failure, tumors, hormone-dependent malignancies, genital bleeding, pregnancy, etc. If any of the above is available, then do not drink these pills. Actually, this is another reason why you should first visit a doctor before buying a pack of medication.
Comments and reviews
Much has been said about Jess Plus. How to accept, whether to take breaks, in which cases you should abandon this idea - all this is clear. But what say girls who have been drinking these pills for more than a month? Almost everyone confidently claims that this is one of the best contraception options. The pain during menstruation disappears, and besides, one does not have to worry about when the next one will begin. Allocations become much less, the cycle ends earlier. Plus, a nice bonus is an improved condition of the skin of the face and hair, as mentioned above.
In fairness, I would like to note that there are only two really good drugs that belong to the category of contraceptives. This is “Jess Plus” and “Yarina” - this information is confirmed by thousands of reviews of girls, women and doctors around the world.
