How Feminor works

Feminor is a synthetic progestin. It works by mimicking the effects of natural progesterone (female hormone). It helps in regulating the growth and shedding of the womb lining, thereby treating menstrual irregularities.

Feminor regulates menstrual cycles and treats a wide range of menstrual disorders such as heavy, painful periods and endometriosis.
It may cause bleeding or spotting in between menstrual periods. Let your doctor know if this occurs frequently.
Stop taking Feminor and inform your doctor immediately if you get severe headaches, stabbing pains or swelling in one leg, pain while breathing, yellowing of your skin or sudden changes in your vision or hearing.
Do not take Feminor if you are pregnant. Use a non-hormonal method of contraception such as condoms to prevent pregnancy while you are taking this medication, as it is not a contraceptive.
