Levofem is a combined oral contraceptive pill (COCP) that is used to prevent pregnancy. It contains two hormones: levonorgestrel (a progestin) and ethinyl estradiol (an estrogen). COCPs work by preventing ovulation, which is the release of an egg from the ovaries. They also thicken the cervical mucus, which makes it more difficult for sperm to reach the egg.
Levofem is typically taken daily, with each pill containing a fixed dose of both hormones.
The primary mechanism of action of COCPs involves preventing ovulation, the release of an egg from the ovaries. This is achieved by suppressing the production of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), the hormones responsible for stimulating ovulation.
