ALESSE is a birth control pill (oral contraceptive) that contains two female sex hormones (levonorgestrel and Ethinyl estradiol).
It has been shown to be highly beneficial in preventing pregnancy when taken as prescribed by your doctor. Pregnancy is always harmful than taking birth control pills except in smokers older than age 35.

* Birth control pills work by inhibiting the monthly release an egg, by the ovaries.

* Thickens the vaginal fluid, which blocks sperm from fertilizing the egg.

* Some studies have indicated changes in the endometrium (lining of the womb) and mucus produced by the cervix (opening of the uterus) with the use of birth control pills, making it more difficult for a fertilized egg to implant within the womb.

* if a fertilized egg fails to attach to the uterus, it will pass right out of the body.

* The pill is TAKEN AS DIRECTED
* The amount of estrogen is 20 micrograms or more.
