What is Dienogest

Dienogest is a combination drug with estradiol that contains female hormones that prevent ovulation (the release of an egg from an ovary). Dienogest also causes changes in your cervical mucus and uterine lining, making it harder for sperm to reach the uterus and harder for a fertilized egg to attach to the uterus. Dienogest is used to prevent pregnancy. This medicine is also used to treat heavy menstrual bleeding that is not caused by any medical condition of the uterus.

Dienogest and estradiol may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.

Drug Interactions

Many drugs can interact with birth control pills and make them less effective, which may result in pregnancy. Estradiol can also affect blood levels of certain other drugs, making them less effective or increasing side effects. You may need to use a back-up birth control method while using certain other drugs. Tell your doctor about all your current medicines and any you start or stop using. Not all possible interactions are listed in this medication guide.
