Why Choose Lizinna?
Targeted Contraceptive Solution: Lizinna is a combined hormonal contraceptive pill designed to prevent pregnancy. It contains two active ingredients—ethinylestradiol (a synthetic form of oestrogen) and norgestimate (a synthetic form of progestogen)—which work together to stop ovulation, thicken cervical mucus to block sperm, and alter the uterine lining to prevent implantation.
Reliable and Effective: Lizinna provides highly effective contraception when taken consistently and correctly. With a 21-day cycle followed by a 7-day pill-free interval, it offers straightforward cycle management. In addition to pregnancy prevention, Lizinna helps regulate menstrual cycles, reduce heavy periods, and alleviate menstrual pain and symptoms associated with premenstrual syndrome (PMS).
Prescription-Based for Personalised Care: Lizinna is available only by prescription, ensuring that your contraceptive method is tailored to your specific health needs. Following a detailed consultation, our healthcare professionals will evaluate your medical history to determine if Lizinna is the right choice for you.
Trusted UK Clinical Expertise: Our licensed UK clinicians offer expert advice to help you make informed decisions about your contraception. We are committed to delivering the highest quality of care, ensuring that you receive the support needed for safe and effective contraception.
Affordable and Discreet Delivery: Lizinna is available in convenient pack sizes, including options for 21-day and 63-day supplies. Your medication will be delivered discreetly and securely to your home, guaranteeing your privacy is always respected.
How Is Lizinna Used?
Lizinna is taken orally once a day for 21 consecutive days, followed by a 7-day pill-free break, during which you may experience withdrawal bleeding, similar to a period. It is essential to take Lizinna at the same time each day to maximise its effectiveness. Always follow the guidance provided by your healthcare professional.
Is Lizinna Right for You?
Before starting Lizinna, speak with our licensed clinicians to review your health history, lifestyle, and any medications you are currently taking. This ensures that Lizinna is safe and suitable for you. You'll receive expert advice on using it for contraception and cycle management effectively.

Frequently Asked Questions: Lizinna
-
Lizinna is a combined hormonal contraceptive pill containing two active ingredients: ethinylestradiol (a synthetic oestrogen) and norgestimate (a synthetic progestogen). It is primarily used for preventing pregnancy by stopping the release of eggs (ovulation), thickening cervical mucus to block sperm, and changing the uterine lining to make it less suitable for implantation.
-
Lizinna prevents pregnancy through a combination of actions: it stops ovulation, thickens the mucus in the cervix to make it harder for sperm to enter, and alters the uterine lining to make it difficult for a fertilised egg to implant.
-
When taken consistently and as directed, Lizinna is about 99% effective at preventing pregnancy. This means that if 100 women use it perfectly for a year, only one might become pregnant. If pills are missed or not taken correctly, its effectiveness decreases.
-
Lizinna is taken orally once a day for 21 consecutive days, followed by a 7-day break during which you will likely experience a withdrawal bleed, similar to a period. It’s important to take the pill at the same time each day to maintain its effectiveness.
-
Lizinna is suitable for women looking for effective contraception and those who may also benefit from the pill’s ability to regulate periods, reduce menstrual pain, or manage premenstrual symptoms. It’s crucial to discuss your medical history with a healthcare provider before starting Lizinna.

-
It’s essential to inform your healthcare provider about any other medications or supplements you’re taking, as they may affect the effectiveness of Lizinna.
-
If you miss a pill, take it as soon as you remember. If more than 12 hours have passed, you may need to use additional contraception, like condoms, for the next 7 days. Follow the specific guidance in the Patient Information Leaflet for further instructions.
-
