How does Daysee work?
Daysee is a combination of two hormones, levonorgestrel (a progestin) and ethinyl estradiol (an estrogen). These two hormones work together to help prevent pregnancy by:
- Stopping ovulation (release of an egg from the ovary) by blocking luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)
- Thickening cervical mucus (fluid from the cervix), which makes it hard for sperm to move and fertilize an egg
- Thinning the lining of the uterus (womb) so a fertilized egg can’t live
