BENEFITS
In Emergency contraception
Preventol 0.75mg Tablet is an emergency contraceptive medicine that stops you from getting pregnant. It may be taken within 3 days or 72 hours of having unprotected intercourse (sex). Firstly, it prevents an egg from being released from your ovaries. Secondly, it makes the fluid (mucus) in your cervix thicker, which makes it more difficult for sperm to enter the womb. Additionally, it prevents thickening of the lining of your womb, thereby making it unfavourable for an egg to grow in it. Preventol 0.75mg Tablet is a reliable and safe method for contraception, if used correctly. It does not interrupt with sex and you can lead a normal routine life without any worries. Take it as directed by the doctor to get the most benefit.
