Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve upon discontinuing the use of Yamini LS Tablet. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Yamini LS Tablet consists of two active components:

Drospirenone (3 mg): This synthetic progestin imitates the effects of progesterone in your body. Among other things, it inhibits the release of gonadotropins from your pituitary gland, which in turn prevents ovulation - the process where an egg is released from your ovaries.
Ethinyl Estradiol (0.02 mg): This synthetic estrogen mimics the effects of natural estrogen in your body. Along with drospirenone, it thickens cervical mucus making it more difficult for sperm to reach an egg, and alters the lining of the uterus (endometrium), making it less receptive to implantation by a fertilised egg.

Together, these two ingredients work synergistically to prevent pregnancy.

Pregnancy

Yamini LS Tablet is contraindicated during pregnancy. If you are pregnant or planning to conceive, make sure to discuss this with your doctor before starting this medicine.
