How the desogestrel pill protects against pregnancy

Desogestrel is a progestogen-only pill, also known as a POP or mini-pill. It helps to prevent pregnancy by thickening cervical mucus, to prevent sperm from passing through and (unlike other contraceptive pills) it is capable of preventing an egg cell from ripening, so there is no egg cell to be fertilised by sperm. If taken at a similar time every day, it is 99% effective. You must take the pill every day without a break. You may experience irregular bleeding or no bleeding at all when taking this pill. Desogestrel is suitable for those who cannot take contraceptive pills that contain oestrogen, such as smokers over 35 and those who are breastfeeding. Desogestrel protects against pregnancy but provides no protection against STIs.
