Rigevidon Tablets are a combined oral contraceptive used to prevent pregnancy. The tablets contain two synthetic hormones: ethinylestradiol (oestrogen) and levonorgestrel (progestogen), which work together to mimic the body’s natural cycle and prevent ovulation. Rigevidon is a widely prescribed contraceptive pill in the UK and is suitable for women who want reliable, reversible protection with added menstrual benefits.
How It Works
Rigevidon prevents pregnancy by acting on multiple levels of the reproductive system. It stops ovulation (the release of an egg), thickens cervical mucus to block sperm from reaching the uterus, and alters the uterine lining to prevent implantation. When taken consistently at the same time each day, Rigevidon is over 99% effective at preventing pregnancy. Each pack contains 21 active pills followed by a 7-day break during which a withdrawal bleed occurs.
Why Choose Rigevidon Tablets
Rigevidon Tablets for contraception offer trusted protection backed by years of clinical use. They are equivalent in formula to Microgynon and are often prescribed as a more accessible or cost-effective option. In addition to preventing pregnancy, Rigevidon may help regulate periods, reduce menstrual cramps, lighten flow, and improve hormonal acne. The daily routine is simple and easy to integrate into your lifestyle. For those seeking consistent, effective hormonal contraception, Rigevidon is a proven and convenient choice.
Important Note
Rigevidon should only be used under medical supervision. It may not be suitable for women with a history of blood clots, migraines with aura, hormone-sensitive cancers, or liver disease. It does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). If you miss a pill or experience unusual side effects, follow the instructions in the patient leaflet or consult a healthcare provider promptly. Store below 25°C, away from sunlight and moisture, and out of reach of children.

Yes, but for immediate protection, it’s best to start on day 1–5 of your period. If you start later, use additional contraception (like condoms) for the first 7 days.
-
If it’s been less than 12 hours, take the missed pill as soon as you remember and continue as normal. If more than 12 hours have passed, protection may be reduced—follow the missed pill instructions in your leaflet and use extra contraception for 7 days.
-
Yes. Many users find that Rigevidon makes periods more regular, lighter, and less painful. It may also reduce some symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS).
-
No. Fertility usually returns quickly once you stop taking the pill. Some people may experience a short delay before their cycle returns to normal, but this is temporary.
-
Rigevidon isn’t usually recommended while breastfeeding, especially during the first 6 weeks after birth. A progestogen-only pill (POP) may be a better option—speak to your GP or pharmacist.
