Millinette is a hormonal combined contraceptive, known by many as “the pill”. It contains two active ingredients, ethinylestradiol and gestodene, which are synthetic versions of the natural sex hormones oestrogen and progesterone.
Millinette protects you against pregnancy and, when used correctly, it is effective over 99% of the time.
Please note: Millinette, and other oral contraceptives, do not offer protection against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Only a barrier contraceptive (condom) will do this.
Additional benefits
Millinette can alleviate certain menstrual symptoms, such as heavy, irregular, or painful periods. However, not all women react to hormonal contraception in the same way; Millinette may also exacerbate symptoms.
