What Is Rigevidon?
Rigevidon is a 21-day combined contraceptive pill. It contains two hormones (an oestrogen and a progestogen) that work together to reduce the chance of pregnancy. Rigevidon is taken daily for 21 days followed by a 7-day pill-free break before starting the next pack.

How Rigevidon Works
Prevents Ovulation
Rigevidon primarily helps prevent pregnancy by stopping ovulation (the release of an egg).
Thickens Cervical Mucus
It thickens cervical mucus, making it harder for sperm to reach an egg.
Changes the Womb Lining
It can also change the womb lining, reducing the likelihood of implantation.
Key Benefits of Rigevidon
Reliable Contraception When Taken Correctly
Combined pills are highly effective when taken as directed, without missed tablets.
Cycle Regulation
Many users experience more predictable withdrawal bleeds and more regular cycle patterns.
Period Symptom Support
Some people notice reduced period pain and lighter bleeding, though individual results vary.
How to Take Rigevidon
Starting Rigevidon
Take one tablet daily at the same time for 21 days, following the sequence in the pack. After finishing the 21 tablets, take a 7-day pill-free break. A withdrawal bleed typically occurs during this break. Begin a new pack on the 8th day, even if the bleed has not stopped.
Missed Pill Guidance
If you miss a pill by less than 24 hours, take it as soon as you remember and continue as normal. If more than 24 hours have passed, contraceptive effectiveness may be reduced. Follow the Patient Information Leaflet (PIL) or seek advice to confirm what to do next and whether extra contraception is needed.
