Description

Ovarynol Tablet is a combined oral contraceptive pill that contains two hormones – Ethinyl Estradiol (estrogen) and Levonorgestrel (progestin). It works by preventing ovulation (release of eggs from the ovary), thickening cervical mucus to block sperm entry, and altering the uterine lining to prevent implantation of a fertilized egg.
