What is Dienogest, Ethinylestradiol used for?

Dienovel is primarily used as an oral contraceptive to prevent pregnancy. It works by altering the cervical mucus and uterine lining, making it harder for sperm to reach the egg and for a fertilized egg to implant. Additionally, some users take Dienovel to manage symptoms of hormonal acne, as the hormones in the medication can help regulate sebum production.
