Jan Aushadhi Products containing Ethinylestradiol
Found 4 generic formulation(s) containing this active ingredient.
Ethinylestradiol 0.05mg + Levonorgestrel 0.25mg Tablets
Ethinylestradiol and Levonorgestrel Tablets IP is a second-generation low-dose Combined Oral Contraceptive (COC) pill on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines. It synergistically suppresses the mid-cycle LH surge to inhibit ovulation, renders cervical mucus hostile to sperm migration, and alters the endometrium. Second-generation levonorgestrel combinations demonstrate the lowest epidemiological relative risk of venous thromboembolism among combined oral contraceptives. Indicated for prevention of pregnancy, cycle regulation, and treatment of dysmenorrhea.
Ethinylestradiol 0.03mg + Desogestrel 0.15mg Tablets
Ethinylestradiol 0.03 mg and Desogestrel 0.15 mg Tablets is a third-generation low-dose monophasic Combined Oral Contraceptive (COC) pill on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines. It prevents pregnancy primarily by suppressing pituitary gonadotropin secretion (inhibiting ovulation), thickening cervical mucus to prevent sperm penetration, and altering the endometrium to impair implantation. Desogestrel has high progestogenic potency and low androgenic activity, causing less acne and weight gain than older progestogens.

Ethinylestradiol 0.035 Mg + Cyproterone 2 Mg Tablet
Ethinylestradiol 0.035 mg and Cyproterone Acetate 2 mg Tablet is a combined hormonal formulation containing an estrogen and a potent anti-androgenic progestogen. Cyproterone competitively blocks androgen receptors and suppresses ovarian androgen synthesis, while Ethinylestradiol increases Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin (SHBG) synthesis, drastically reducing free circulating testosterone. Indicated for the treatment of severe androgen-dependent acne (with or without seborrhea), moderate to severe hirsutism, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in women of reproductive age requiring oral contraception.
