Frequently asked questions

What is Levobel Diario used for?+
Levobel Diario is a combined oral contraceptive indicated for the prevention of pregnancy in women of reproductive age. It may also be prescribed to help regulate menstrual cycles, manage acne related to androgen excess, and alleviate symptoms of conditions such as endometriosis and polycystic ovary syndrome.
How does Ethinylestradiol/Levonorgestrel work in Levobel Diario?+
The Ethinylestradiol component mimics estrogen, while Levonorgestrel acts as a synthetic progestogen. Together they suppress the hypothalamic‑pituitary‑gonadal axis, lowering LH and FSH secretion, which prevents ovulation. They also thicken cervical mucus and alter the endometrium, creating an environment that hinders sperm penetration and implantation.
What is the usual dose of Levobel Diario?+
The dosing regimen for Levobel Diario is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional. Typically, it is taken as one tablet daily at the same time each day, but the exact schedule and any missed‑dose instructions should be provided by the prescriber.
Is Levobel Diario safe to use during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Levobel Diario is classified as Pregnancy Category X, meaning it must not be used during pregnancy because it can cause fetal harm.
