Frequently asked questions

What is Mywy used for?+
Mywy is a combined oral contraceptive containing drospirenone and ethinylestradiol. It is primarily prescribed to prevent pregnancy in women of reproductive age. In addition, it may be used to regulate menstrual cycles and to treat moderate acne when clinically appropriate.
How does drospirenone/ethinylestradiol work?+
Drospirenone provides progestogenic activity with anti‑mineralocorticoid and anti‑androgenic effects, while ethinylestradiol supplies estrogenic stimulation. Together they suppress the mid‑cycle surge of luteinising hormone and follicle‑stimulating hormone, preventing ovulation, and they also thicken cervical mucus and modify the endometrium to reduce the chance of implantation.
What is the usual dose of Mywy?+
The dosing schedule for Mywy is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional. Typically, it involves a 21‑day series of active tablets followed by a 7‑day placebo or hormone‑free interval, but the exact regimen should be confirmed with the prescriber.
Is Mywy safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Mywy is not intended for use during pregnancy and should be discontinued if pregnancy occurs. Limited data exist for breastfeeding; the product is generally not recommended unless the benefits to the mother outweigh potential risks to the infant.
How do I order Mywy from GNH USA?+
To order Mywy, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com indicating the required quantity. GNH USA supplies hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.
How does Mywy compare with other combined oral contraceptives?+
Mywy contains the same drospirenone/ethinylestradiol combination found in many branded products such as Yasmin. Its efficacy, safety profile and hormonal balance are comparable, while formulation differences (e.g., tablet size, inactive ingredients) may affect tolerability for individual patients.
What are the storage and handling requirements for Mywy?+
Mywy tablets should be stored at ambient temperature, below 25 °C. Keep them in the original blister pack, protect from moisture and direct sunlight, and keep out of reach of children.
How is Mywy administered?+
Mywy is taken orally, once daily, preferably at the same time each day. Tablets may be swallowed with or without food. A new pack is started after the placebo interval or as directed by the prescriber.
What are the most serious risks associated with Mywy?+
The most serious risks include venous thromboembolism, arterial thrombosis (stroke or myocardial infarction), severe hypertension, and rare liver or gallbladder disorders. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if they experience unexplained leg pain, chest pain, severe headache, or visual changes.
Who should not use Mywy?+
Mywy is contraindicated in women with a history of thromboembolic disorders, estrogen‑dependent tumors, active liver disease, uncontrolled hypertension, known or suspected pregnancy, or those who smoke heavily and are over 35 years old. It should also be avoided in individuals with known hypersensitivity to any component of the tablet.
