Logynon (Ethinylestradiol and Levonorgestrel) 30mcg/150mcg Tablets
Prescription-Only Medication (POM)

Product Overview:
Logynon is a combined oral contraceptive pill that contains Ethinylestradiol 30mcg and Levonorgestrel 150mcg. It works by preventing ovulation (the release of an egg), thickening the cervical mucus to block sperm from reaching the egg, and altering the lining of the womb to prevent implantation. Logynon provides reliable, daily contraception and is suitable for women seeking a combined hormonal contraceptive.

Logynon is prescribed for the prevention of pregnancy in women who wish to use an oral contraceptive. It is a well-regulated method of contraception, ideal for women who prefer a combined hormonal contraceptive.
