Duoluton L Tablet 1*21

Duoluton L Tablet belongs to the group of hormonal contraceptive medicines primarily used for birth control and the treatment of irregular or painful menstrual periods, also known as dysmenorrhea. It helps women prevent unwanted pregnancy and promotes safe family planning. The tablet also regulates hormonal balance, easing symptoms such as mood swings, nausea, abdominal discomfort, and hot flashes caused by hormonal fluctuations.
This tablet combines two active ingredients, Ethinylestradiol and Levonorgestrel. Ethinylestradiol is a synthetic form of estrogen that helps maintain a healthy menstrual cycle by fulfilling the body’s estrogen deficiency, while Levonorgestrel is a progestin hormone that prevents ovulation and fertilization. Together, these hormones work effectively to prevent conception and manage menstrual irregularities.

How Duoluton L Tablet Works

Duoluton L Tablet acts by maintaining hormonal equilibrium through the combined action of estrogen and progestin. Ethinylestradiol maintains the regularity of the menstrual cycle and prevents symptoms related to low estrogen levels, while Levonorgestrel prevents the release of an egg from the ovary and thickens cervical mucus to make it difficult for sperm to reach the egg. It also changes the uterine lining to make implantation difficult, thus preventing pregnancy effectively.
