Frequently asked questions

What is Mywy used for?+
Mywy is a combined oral contraceptive containing drospirenone and ethinylestradiol. It is prescribed to prevent pregnancy and to help regulate menstrual cycles, providing more predictable bleeding patterns for women of reproductive age.
How does drospirenone/ethinylestradiol work?+
Drospirenone acts as a progestogen with anti‑mineralocorticoid activity, while ethinylestradiol supplies estrogenic support. Together they suppress the mid‑cycle surge of LH and FSH, preventing ovulation, thicken cervical mucus, and modify the endometrium to reduce the chance of implantation.
What is the usual dose of Mywy?+
The dosing regimen for Mywy is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional. Typically, the product is taken as one tablet daily, but the exact schedule, including any missed‑dose instructions, should be followed as directed by the prescriber.
Is Mywy safe in pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Mywy is classified as Pregnancy Category X, meaning it is contraindicated during pregnancy because it may cause fetal harm. Use while breastfeeding is generally not recommended unless the benefits outweigh the risks, and this decision should be made by a qualified clinician.
