Low-dose combined pill with reduced oestrogen.
Femodette is a combined contraceptive pill with a reduced amount of oestrogen. It contains two hormones that offer close to 100% effectiveness against unwanted pregnancies.
You can buy Femodette online by simply taking the online consultation. Then, one of our registered clinicians will be able to offer you the best options based on your individual needs. The choice of medication is yours, as is the frequency of deliveries.
Femodette is a low-dose combined contraceptive pill. It contains a smaller dose of oestrogen than some other combined pills, so it may be particularly suitable for women who are more sensitive to the hormone, or for women who are prone to more side effects with higher doses of oestrogen.
The two artificial hormones in Femodette adjust the body’s menstrual cycle slightly, which makes pregnancy a lot less likely.
Provided you take it correctly, at the same time each day, Femodette is more than 99% effective, despite its lower dose of oestrogen. To put this into perspective, out of 100 women taking it as they should over a 12-month period, just one will get pregnant. This is what’s known as ‘perfect use’.
In cases where pills are missed from time to time, or if it’s used in error, its effectiveness drops slightly (to around 91%). So approximately 9 women in every 100 will become pregnant in a year. This is what’s known as ‘typical use’.
Femodette is available in one standard dose: 20mcg of ethinylestradiol and 75mcg of gestodene. It’s a lower dose alternative to Femodene.
So if you need a pill with slightly more oestrogen in it to help get certain symptoms under control, a doctor may suggest switching to Femodene.
How we source info.
When we present you with stats, data, opinion or a consensus, we’ll tell you where this came from. And we’ll only present data as clinically reliable if it’s come from a reputable source, such as a state or government-funded health body, a peer-reviewed medical journal, or a recognised analytics or data body. Read more in our editorial policy.
Femodette comes in strips of 21 pills, and each pill is marked with a day of the week. You should take one pill at the same time every day, according to the day of the week printed on the strip. Follow the arrow on the strip until you have no more pills.
You can swallow each pill with water if you need to, but don’t chew it.
If you choose to take Femodette on a 21-day basis, once you’ve taken all 21 pills in the strip, take a 7-day, pill-free break from it. Within a few days of taking the last pill from the strip, you should experience a withdrawal bleed, which may not have finished by the time you’re ready to start your new strip.
Provided you’ve taken the pills correctly and start the next strip when you should, you don’t need to use any additional contraception, like a condom, during this 7-day pill-free window.
Start your next strip after the 7-day pill-free break, even if you’re still experiencing some bleeding. If you’re taking Femodette correctly, you’ll always start a new strip on the same day of the week.
If you’re less than 12 hours late your protection from pregnancy isn’t reduced. Take the one you missed immediately, even if it means taking two pills in one day. Then carry on as normal.
If you’re 12 hours late or missing more than one pill, your protection could be reduced. Take the pill you missed most recently as soon as you remember, even if it means taking two pills at once. Leave any pills that you missed earlier than this in the strip. You should then carry on taking a pill every day for the next 7 days at the usual time. Use a condom for the next 7 days.
You can do one of two things. Take the last pill of the strip as a substitute for the lost pill, then take all the other pills on the days you’re supposed to. Your pill cycle will be one day shorter than normal, but it won’t reduce your protection. Once your 7 pill-free days have passed, you will have a new starting day, one day earlier than it was before.
The other way is to take a pill from a spare strip (if you have one). And then take all the other pills from your current strip as normal. Should you lose any more pills, you can use the spare strip you’ve opened.

Seamless Service and Reliable Contraceptive Solution
My experience with Treated has been nothing short of exceptional. Transitioning from the US to the UK, I needed to replenish my contraceptive pill supply, and Treated made the process incredibly smooth and hassle-free. The online consultation with a doctor was convenient and reassuring. I was able to explain my requirements, and the doctor provided me with several suitable alternatives, ultimately leading me to Eloine, which has been a perfect fit for me so far. The guidance and support I received throughout the process were invaluable, and it was evident that the doctor had my best interests at heart. What truly impressed me was the speed of the entire process. Once I made my decision and completed the necessary steps, my order was promptly dispatched and arrived at my doorstep the very next day. Such efficiency is a rarity these days, and I commend Treated for their commitment to customer satisfaction. As for the product itself, I have been using Eloine for just over a week now, and I am pleased to report that everything is going well. It's comforting to know that I have access to a reliable contraceptive option that meets my needs, all thanks to Treated. I am grateful for the peace of mind they have provided me, and I will certainly be returning for any future healthcare needs. Thank you, Treated, for exceeding my expectations.
