Choice Tablet 28's

Choice Tablet is used for birth control and treating dysmenorrhea (irregular and painful periods). It works by preventing the release of an egg from ovaries and making sperm entry difficult to enter in the uterus to fertilise sperm and egg. In addition to this, it prevents the thickening of the uterus's inner wall, which is required for egg growth in the uterus. Ferrous fumarate is required to make up for the amount of iron that women lose during their menstrual period. It may cause common side effects such as acne, amenorrhea (absence of menses), tenderness, pain, or swelling of the breasts, decrease in the secretion of breast milk after giving birth, dizziness, oedema (fluid retention), gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal pain, cramps, and bloating, unwanted hair growth, intolerance to contact lenses, changes in sexual desire, loss of scalp hair, change in menstrual flow, dark patches on the skin, mood changes, nausea, nervousness, vaginal discharge, vomiting, and loss or gain of appetite.

Health Queries

I recently had an abortion and want to prevent pregnancy. Should I use condoms or take any tablets?

After an abortion, it is important to choose a reliable method to prevent pregnancy based on your needs. Condoms are a safe option and also protect against infections, but they depend on correct use every time. Tablets like oral contraceptive pills can give more consistent protection if taken regularly. The choice depends on your comfort, health and plans. Consult your doctor to decide the most suitable and safe method for you.
