What Is Mercilon?

Mercilon is a combined oral contraceptive pill commonly known as birth control pills or ‘the pill’. Combined contraceptive pills prevent ovaries from releasing an egg. They also cause changes in the endometrium, the lining of the uterus, and the cervical mucus to prevent sperm from fertilizing the egg.

This contraceptive pill can also be used as an emergency pill after sexual intercourse to prevent a possible pregnancy. It is a 21-day pill which means you have to take one each day for 21 days, followed by 7 days when you take no pills.

How Does Mercilon Work?

Mercilon is a low dose contraceptive pill. It contains two female sex hormones called estrogen and progestogen. The combination of estrogen and progestogen works to prevent ovulation i.e. release of an egg from the ovary. This combination of hormones also makes the fluid (mucus) in your cervix thicker and makes it harder for a sperm to enter your cervix.
