Contraceptive pills are usually taken for around 21 days and then require a 7-day break. During this break women often experience a breakthrough bleed which resembles a normal period.
Other forms of contraceptive pills, such as the Femodene ED contraceptive pill, need to be taken throughout the entire month without a break. This method often stops regular menstruation from happening or can cause overall lighter periods.
Before taking the Femodene ED contraceptive pill, it is important to measure your weight, as well as take readings of your blood pressure, as these can affect which pill is best for you. You can purchase home blood pressure kits or visit a local pharmacy to get a free blood pressure check. You will also be asked questions regarding your health history, including migraines, smoking, a family history of stroke or heart attack, and breast cancer.
