DESCRIPTION
Sayana Press is a progestogen-only injectable contraceptive designed to provide effective and long-term birth control. This innovative contraceptive method is administered via an injection every three months, offering a hassle-free solution for women seeking reliable pregnancy prevention without daily pills.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Sayana Press contains the hormone depot medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA). It is delivered in a prefilled, ready-to-use syringe that ensures easy and accurate administration. The injection works by preventing ovulation, thickening cervical mucus to block sperm, and altering the uterine lining to prevent implantation. With its three-month efficacy, Sayana Press provides continuous protection with minimal maintenance.
HOW TO USE
Initial Dose: Receive your first injection at a healthcare provider’s office. This can be given at any time during your menstrual cycle if you are certain you are not pregnant.
Subsequent Doses: Schedule follow-up injections every 12 to 13 weeks to maintain contraceptive protection. Adhering to this schedule is crucial for continuous effectiveness.
Missed Injection: If you miss a scheduled injection, contact your healthcare provider immediately. You may need to use additional contraception, such as condoms, until your next injection is administered.
SIDE EFFECTS
Sayana Press is generally well-tolerated, but some users may experience side effects. Common side effects include irregular menstrual bleeding or spotting, weight gain, headaches, mood changes, and breast tenderness. These effects often resolve after a few months of use. Rare but more serious side effects may include bone density loss and severe allergic reactions. If you experience significant mood changes, severe abdominal pain, or symptoms of an allergic reaction, seek medical attention promptly.
