Most contraceptive pills need to be taken for 21 days out of the month with a 7-day break pause. During this time you may experience a breakthrough bleed, which usually appears as a normal period. However, there are other forms of contraceptive pills that can be taken for 28 days without a break period. These forms of pills can help to stop regular menstruation from happening and can be used to help lighten heavier periods.

Before you buy Logynon ED online, measure your weight and take readings of your blood pressure. This is to ensure that you are a suitable candidate for contraceptive pills.

If your family has a history of strokes, heart attacks, or breast cancer, you should discuss this with your doctor as this can alter the contraceptives that are suitable for you.
