Frequently asked questions

What is Lindynette 30 used for?+
Lindynette 30 is a combined oral contraceptive indicated for the prevention of pregnancy in women of reproductive age. It provides a reliable, reversible method of birth control when taken as prescribed.
How does Ethinylestradiol and Gestodene work?+
The two hormones suppress the hypothalamic‑pituitary‑gonadal axis, preventing the LH and FSH surge that triggers ovulation. Ethinylestradiol stabilises the endometrium, while Gestodene thickens cervical mucus, creating conditions that hinder fertilisation and implantation.

The dosing regimen for Lindynette 30 is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional. Typically, it is taken once daily for a 21‑day active phase followed by a 7‑day hormone‑free interval, but the exact schedule must be confirmed by the prescriber.
Is Lindynette 30 safe to use during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
