Ethinyl estradiol and desogestrel

Ethinyl estradiol and desogestrel tablets are a combination of oral hormonal contraceptive pills that inhibit ovulation and prevents pregnancy.

Indications of Ethinyl estradiol and desogestrel:

  • Contraception:

    • It is indicated for the prevention of conception.
  • Off Label Use of Ethinyl estradiol and desogestrel in Adults:

    • Abnormal uterine bleeding
    • Dysmenorrhea
    • Hirsutism
    • Menstrual bleeding (menorrhagia)
    • Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in women with menstrual irregularities and hirsutism/acne

Ethinyl estradiol and desogestrel dosage for females for contraception:

  • One tablet per oral every 24 hours.
  • Schedule 1 (Sunday starter):

    • On the first Sunday following the start of menstruation, the dose should be given.
    • Take the first tablet the same day, if your period starts on a Sunday. A second method of birth control shouldn't be used with a Sunday start until after the first week of continuous use.
  • Schedule 2 (Day 1 starter):

    • One tablet should be taken every 24 hours starting on the first day of the menstrual cycle.
    • Pregnancy should be ruled out if all medicines have not been taken on time and one menstrual period has been missed. Before starting a new dosage cycle, a pregnancy test is required if two consecutive menstrual cycles are missing.
  • Missed or late doses:

    • If one dose is late (<24 hours or 24 to <48 hours):

      • Take the medication as soon as you can. Take the remaining doses as usual (even if that means 2 doses on the same day).
    • If ≥2 consecutive doses are missed (≥48 hours ):

      • All other missed doses should be disregarded; the most recent missing dose should be taken as soon as possible.
      • Use alternative methods of contraception until hormone tablets have been taken for a week; the remaining doses should be continued at the regular time (even if that means taking 2 doses on the same day).
    • By completing the current pack and beginning a new one, a hormone-free interval should be skipped if doses were missed during the final week of hormonal pills (for example, days 15 to 21 of a 28-day pack).
    • Other forms of contraception should be used up until hormone tablets from a fresh pack have been taken for one week if a new pack cannot be started right away.
    • In such circumstances, take into account using emergency contraception (refer to guidelines for details).

Ethinyl estradiol and desogestrel treatment dose in children:

Refer to adults dosing.

Ethinyl estradiol and desogestrel pregnancy Risk Factor: X

  • It is not recommended for use during pregnancy.
  • If pregnancy does occur, combination hormonal contraceptives should be used.
  • If used in an early pregnancy, combination hormonal contraceptives have not been shown to cause any adverse effects for the mother or baby.
  • Postpartum women should not start combination hormonal contraceptives within 21 days of delivery. This is due to an increased risk of venous embolism (VTE) in postpartum women.
  • Postpartum day 42 reduces the risk to baseline.
  • Depending on their specific risk factors for venous embolism, women can begin using combination hormonal contraceptives between 21 and 42 days after giving birth.

Use of desogestrel and ethinyl estradiol during breastfeeding

  • Breast milk contains contraceptive steroids.
  • Combination hormonal contraceptives can cause jaundice and breast-engorgement in breastfeeding infants.
  • It has not been demonstrated that breastfeeding an infant when a mother is using hormonal contraceptives has any negative consequences on the infant's growth.
  • The hormonal contraceptives can reduce milk production. However, the manufacturer suggests that you use other contraceptives until your child is weaned.
  • When starting treatment for breastfeeding women, it is important to evaluate the benefits/risks and other options to hormonal combination contraception.

Warnings and precautions

  • Breast cancer

    • Combination hormonal contraceptives are not associated with breast cancer in women who are at high risk (family history, susceptibility genes (BRCA1, BRCA2)).
    • Combination hormonal contraceptives may make it worse for women who have had breast cancer in the past. This is because it is a hormone sensitive tumor.
    • Women with breast cancer history or who have had it are advised to not use this product.
  • Cervical cancer:

    • Cervical cancer risk is elevated by hormonal contraception. There aren't enough research on them, and they might also be linked to other risk factors.
    • The prognosis for an existing condition may be improved by hormonal therapy.
    • Combination hormonal contraceptives are available for use by women undergoing treatment for cervical cancer.
  • Chloasma

    • Some of the causes of chloasma include pregnancy, sun exposure, combined hormonal contraceptives, and these conditions.
    • Women with higher risk factors or a tendency to develop should not be exposed to sunlight or ultraviolet radiation during treatment.
  • Cholestasis:

    • If you have ever used an oral contraceptive or had cholestatic jaundice while pregnant, your risk of developing cholestasis is higher. Its use is therefore not advised.
  • The Lipid Effects

    • Serum triglycerides can become abnormally high when hormonal contraceptives are combined.
  • Retinal vascular embolism:

    • Unexplained visual loss, proptosis or papilledema should be stopped immediately and a retinal vein thrombosis evaluation should be performed.
  • Thromboembolic disorders

    • The risk of venous embolism is higher in the first year, and lower than that associated with hormonal therapy during pregnancy.
    • According to some studies, the risk of developing breast cancer in preparations containing third- or fourth-generation progestins/high doses ethinyl estradiol is greater.
    • There is an increased risk of venous thromboembolism in patients with inherited thrombophilias (eg, protein C or S deficiency/factor V Leiden mutation/prothrombin mutation/antithrombin deficiency).
    • The risk of developing thrombosis can be increased by hormonal contraception, smoking, hypertension, obesity, age >35, and other factors like smoking, hypertension, obesity, or overweight.
    • Hormonal contraception should not be used by women who have had strokes or who have ischemic heart disease since it raises the risk of arterial thrombosis (such as stroke or MI).
    • Women with high rates of arterial or vein thrombosis should not use combination hormonal contraceptives.
  • Vaginal bleeding

    • In the initial 3 months of therapy, missed periods, intra-cyclic bleeding/spotting and breakthrough can all be observed.
    • Unresolved, irregular vaginal bleeding should be treated immediately to rule out malignancy and pregnancy.
    • After stopping combination hormonal contraceptives, amenorrhea/oligomenorrhea can occur especially when such a condition was preexistent.
  • Cardiovascular disease

    • Use with caution in individuals who have cardiovascular disease risk factors, such as smokers, hypertension, abnormal lipid profiles, elderly patients, or diabetes mellitus.
    • The incidence of cardiovascular disease may be increased by hormonal contraception.
  • Depression

    • Patients at high risk for depression should be cautious. If you have severe depression, discontinue use of this drug.
  • Diabetes:

    • Impaired glucose tolerance can result from combined hormonal contraception. For women with nonvascular disorders, it does not have any long-term impacts on diabetes control and only has a modest impact on daily insulin requirements.
    • Depending on the severity of the condition, women with concurrent nephropathy, neuropathy, retinopathy, other vascular disease, or diabetes mellitus (DM) for more than 20 years should be closely watched.
    • Women who have vascular disease or diabetes mellitus should avoid it.
  • Fluid retention can lead to more severe diseases

    • Fluid retention can occur so it is important to avoid fluid retention in patients suffering from fluid retention.
  • Endometrial and ovarian cancers:

    • Combination hormonal contraceptives are less likely to cause endometrial/ovarian cancer in women who use them.
    • Particularly for those who have BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations, oral contraceptives may be helpful in lowering the risk of ovarian cancer.
    • Combination hormonal therapy is an option for women who are awaiting treatment for endometrial or ovarian cancer.
  • Gallbladder disease

    • Drug therapy can lead to an increase in gallbladder disease risk or worsening of existing gallbladder diseases.
  • Hepatic adenomas and carcinomas

    • Hepatic tumours that have ruptured shouldn't be treated with combination hormonal contraceptives. A potentially fatal intra-abdominal haemorrhage could result from this.
    • Combination hormonal therapy (rare) may increase the risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma.
    • Women with hepatocellular cancer should not take the drug.
  • Hepatic impairment

    • Poor metabolism of hormonal combination contraceptives can be caused by hepatic derangement.
    • In the event of liver dysfunction or jaundice, it is important to stop taking the drug.
    • Women with mild (compensated), but not severe (decompensated), cirrhosis may be treated with combination hormonal contraceptives.
  • Hepatitis

    • Women with severe viral hepatitis, flares or women who are pregnant by combination hormonal contraceptives should not use them.
    • Patients with chronic hepatitis have not shown that the drug increases the severity or rate of cirrhotic fibrisis.
    • It has not been shown to cause severe liver dysfunction or liver failure in women who are carriers.
  • Hereditary angioedema:

    • The therapy might cause angioedema or hereditary symptoms.
  • Hypertension:

    • Older adults are more likely to have hypertension, and it lasts for longer periods of time and at higher doses.
    • It should not be prescribed for hypertension or vascular disease.
    • Treatment of mild hypertension (140-159 mmHg systolic, 90-99 mmHg diastolic) and controlled hypertension may be worth the risks.
    • When prescribing contraceptives, it is important to consider the risk factors for cardiovascular disease such as older age/smoking/DM.
    • The manufacturer forbids the use of this product in women suffering from uncontrolled hypertension.
  • Migraine

    • You should always be on the lookout for any new, persistent, severe or severe headaches.
    • In migraines that don't have aura, you can use combination hormonal contraceptives (including menstrual migraines).
    • It is not recommended for women suffering from headaches with focal neurological symptoms.
  • Renal impairment

    • It is important that women with kidney disease are prescribed another method of contraception.
  • Transplantation of solid-organs:

    • Women who have had to undergo complicated organ transplants have experienced serious medical complications (eg, graft rejection/rejection/cardial allograft vasculopathy).
    • Women who have undergone complex organ transplants should not use combination hormonal contraceptives (Curtis 2016,b).
  • Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE):

    • Women who have systemic lupus, also known as SLE, have an increased risk of developing heart disease, stroke, and venous embolism.
    • Women with SLE and positive or unknown antiphospholipid antibodies should not use hormonal contraceptives in combination. The risk of arterial or venous embolism is higher.

Monitoring parameters:

  • Various factors, such as the assessment of pregnancy before therapy, blood pressure before therapy, weight (BMI at baseline), and probable changes in health status assessment should be done routinely.
  • Pregnancy should be ruled out if all medicines have not been taken on time and one menstrual period has been missed.
  • Before beginning a new dosage cycle, determine whether pregnancy is present if 2 consecutive menstrual cycles are missing.
  • Monitoring should be done for visual changes, blood pressure, thromboembolism symptoms, depression symptoms, glycemic management in people with diabetes, and lipid profiles in people who are being treated for hyperlipidemia.
  • If necessary, diagnostic procedures such as endometrial sampling should be carried out to rule out cancer in the event that atypical vaginal bleeding goes untreated.

How to administer Ethinyl estradiol and desogestrel?

  • At intervals no longer than 24 hours, administer at the same time every day.
  • For the 21-tablet package, one tablet is taken for 21 days in a row, then one week is allowed without taking any medication. The fresh course should begin the eighth day after the previous tablet was taken.
  • One tablet every day, uninterrupted, should be taken during the 28-tablet supply.
  • The manufacturer advises using a different method of contraception if vomiting or diarrhoea start to occur.
  • There are other rules available. If pregnancy has been ruled out, combined hormonal contraceptives may be started at any point throughout the menstrual cycle.
  • Unless contraception is initiated within the first five days of monthly bleeding or a woman abstains from sexual activity, backup contraception should be taken for a week.
  • Following a first or second trimester abortion, combined hormonal contraceptives should be used within one week or shortly after.
  • Unless backup contraception is initiated at the time of a surgical abortion, backup contraception is necessary for one week.

Ethinyl estradiol and desogestrel Mechanism of action:

  • Combination hormonal contraceptives have the potential to prevent ovulation by triggering a negative feedback mechanism in the hypothalamus.
  • This alters the normal pattern gonadotropin production of a Follicle-stimulating Hormone (FSH), and luteinizing hormone from the anterior pituitary.
  • The follicular phase FSH is inhibited and the midcycle surge gonadotropins are not. Combination hormonal contraceptives can cause genital tract changes, including changes to the cervical mucus.
  • This makes it difficult for sperm penetration, even if there is ovulation. Alterations in the endometrium can also cause unfavorable conditions for nidation. 
  • Combination hormonal contraceptives can cause alteration in the tubal transport and ovary through the fallopian tube. Alteration in sperm fertility can be caused by progesterone drugs.

Desogestrel and ethinyl estradiol are rapidly and completely absorbed. Etonogestrel, the active metabolite of desogestrel, binds to proteins in a 98% to 999% concentration, particularly to the sex hormone binding globulin. The majority of ethinyl estradiol (98.3%) is linked to albumin. Desogestrel is metabolised by CYP2C9 in the liver to the active metabolite etonogestrel (3-keto-desogestrel); Etonogestrel is metabolised by CYP3A4 in the liver; both ethinyl estradiol and etonogestrel are metabolised in the liver. Biphasic and triphasic preparations increased the bioavailability of e The elimination half-life of etonogestrel is 38 20 hours, and that of ethinyl estradiol is 26 6.8 hours. The time to peak for monophasic preparations of etonogestrel and ethinyl estradiol is 1.4 0.8 hours and 1.5 0.8 hours, respectively. The time to peak for biphasic and triphasic preparations varies by day in the cycle.
