DAYSEE Uses, Side Effects, Interactions, Warnings & Dosing
What is DAYSEE?
DAYSEE is the brand name for levonorgestrel/ethinyl estradiol and is available as an oral tablet.
What dosages is DAYSEE available in?

What is DAYSEE used for?
DAYSEE is an estrogen/progestin combined contraceptive used to prevent pregnancy
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
How do I take DAYSEE?
DAYSEE is typically taken by mouth once daily. There are 91 active tablets and they contain different dosages of levonorgestrel and ethinyl estradiol. Days 1 through 84: 0.15 mg of levonorgestrel and 30 mcg of ethinyl estradiol Days 85 through 91: 10 mcg of ethinyl estradiol
