Ovral
Ovral is a combined oral contraceptive pill containing two hormones: ethinyl estradiol and norgestrel. It works mainly by preventing ovulation, which means it stops the ovaries from releasing eggs. It also thickens cervical mucus to make it harder for sperm to reach an egg and alters the lining of the uterus to reduce the chance of implantation. Taken regularly as directed, Ovral is an effective method of birth control. It can also help regulate menstrual cycles and reduce menstrual cramps, but it does not protect against sexually transmitted infections. Always consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
