Frequently asked questions about Lynestrenol
Q. What is Minikare Tablet and what is it used for?
Minikare Tablet is “progesterone-only” oral contraceptive pill. Progesterone only pills contain the hormone progesterone, but don't contain estrogen. Minikare Tablet contains Lynestrenol, which is used to prevent pregnancy.
Q. How and in what dose should I take Minikare Tablet?
Take this medicine as per your doctor's advice. Take your tablet at about the same time everyday, to ensure consistent levels of medicine in your body.
Q. Should I give a break after finishing my pack of Minikare Tablet?

Q. What if I forget to take Minikare Tablet?
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember and continue the usual dosing schedule. However, if the dose was missed by more than 3 hours, you may not be totally protected against pregnancy. Use a non-hormonal method of contraception such as condoms, at least for the next 7 days to prevent pregnancy. Frequent missing of doses may lead to unexpected vaginal bleeding or spotting (blood stain). Consult your doctor if this persists.

Q. What are the advantages of using Minikare Tablet (progesterone-only pill) over combined oral contraceptive pills?
The progesterone only pill can also be used by those women who are lactating. With progesterone only pills, you would stay away from the side effects of estrogen, which are usually associated with combined oral contraceptive pills.
