21-day combined pill for shorter periods.
Maexeni is a combined contraceptive pill with two ingredients that prevent pregnancy. You take it everyday for 21 days, then you have a break.
If you need contraception, talk to one of our clinicians. If you order Maexeni online with us, we can deliver it right to your door on a schedule that works for you.
Maexeni is a combined pill, so it contains two active ingredients that stop you from getting pregnant. One is an artificial form of progesterone and one is an artificial form of oestrogen. These are both hormones that occur naturally in your body and fluctuate during your cycle. By changing the levels of these hormones in your system, Maexeni prevents pregnancy. Maexeni also tends to give you lighter periods, and it shouldn’t get in the way of your sex life.
There are two active ingredients in Maexeni (so the ones that do the work). These are ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel. Ethinylestradiol works like oestrogen in the body, while levonorgestrel works like progesterone. They function together to prevent pregnancy in a few different ways.
Maexeni prevents ovulation, meaning your ovaries don’t release an egg as normal. It also makes the mucus surrounding your cervix much thicker and stickier, meaning that sperm can’t enter your uterus as easily. Even if an egg does somehow become released and fertilised, Maexini also thins the lining of your uterus making it much harder for an egg to implant there. All together, Maexeni stops you from getting pregnant very effectively.
There’s only one dose of Maexeni, a pill containing 30mcg of ethinylestradiol and 150mcg of levonorgestrel. This is considered a ‘standard dose’ of oestrogen (instead of combined pills with a low dose of oestrogen). You’ll take Maexeni everyday for 21 days, then have a seven day break without taking any tablets.
