Mircette Uses

Mircette is an oral contraceptive (also called "the pill"). Like other pills for birth control, it is taken to prevent pregnancy.

How does Mircette work?

Mircette contains the female hormones estrogen and progesterone that act to prevent ovulation the release of an egg from the ovary. The hormones also lead to changes in the mucus of the cervix, making it difficult for sperm to enter into the uterus. In addition, they cause changes in the lining of the uterus, lowering the chances that an embryo will attach to the uterus and develop into a baby.

How to take Mircette

Mircette has a unique dosing schedule. The first 21 white pills contain estrogen and progesterone. Unlike other 28-day pills that have 7 green inactive pills at the end of the cycle pack, Mircette has only 2 green inactive pills followed by 5 yellow pills that contain estrogen. To achieve maximum benefits from Mircette, it is important for you to take all 28 pills. Do not discard any of them. Also, remember to take the pills at the same time each day.
