Product Overview
About SELECT 1/35 (21-DAY)
SELECT 1/35 (21-DAY) is a hormonal contraceptive medication containing the active ingredients ETHINYL ESTRADIOL and NORETHINDRONE. It is a combination oral contraceptive used to prevent pregnancy in women of childbearing age.
Key Benefits & Uses
- Prevents pregnancy by inhibiting ovulation and thickening cervical mucus to prevent sperm penetration.
- Reduces menstrual cramps, bloating, and other symptoms associated with premenstrual syndrome (PMS).
- May help regulate menstrual cycles and reduce the risk of anemia due to heavy menstrual bleeding.
Active Ingredient & Action
ETHINYL ESTRADIOL, a synthetic estrogen, works by suppressing the release of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) from the hypothalamus, which in turn inhibits the release of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) from the pituitary gland. This prevents ovulation and thickens cervical mucus, making it difficult for sperm to reach the egg. NORETHINDRONE, a synthetic progestin, helps to maintain the endometrial lining and prevent implantation of a fertilized egg.
Important Notes
SELECT 1/35 (21-DAY) should be taken exactly as directed, one tablet daily for 21 consecutive days, followed by a 7-day pill-free interval. It is essential to use a backup method of contraception, such as condoms, during the first 7 days of treatment. Women with a history of blood clots, high blood pressure, or liver disease should consult their doctor before starting treatment. Regular check-ups with a healthcare provider are necessary to monitor blood pressure, liver function, and other potential side effects.
