Description
Evra is a contraceptive patch designed for women to prevent pregnancy. It contains two hormones: ethinylestradiol (an estrogen) and norelgestromin (a progestin). These hormones are similar to the natural ones in the body and work together to stop ovulation, the release of an egg from the ovary. If there’s no egg, pregnancy cannot happen. Evra also thickens cervical mucus, making it harder for sperm to reach the egg, and changes the lining of the uterus to make it less likely to support a fertilized egg.
The patch is applied to the skin, and hormones are absorbed directly into the bloodstream. It is worn once a week for three weeks, followed by one patch-free week where a withdrawal bleed usually occurs. This makes it convenient for those who prefer not to take daily pills.
Evra is as effective as the combined birth control pill when used correctly. Benefits include consistent hormone levels, once-a-week dosing, and no need for daily reminders. However, like all hormonal contraceptives, it may not be suitable for everyone, especially women with a history of blood clots, stroke, or certain cancers. Common side effects can include skin irritation at the patch site, headache, nausea, or breast tenderness.
Evra is a discreet, reliable, and easy-to-use contraceptive option for women looking for a hormone-based method of birth control.
