ABSTRACT:
A method for hormonal contraception having a first hormonal component and a second hormonal component packaged separately in a packing unit and intended for short-term sequential administration, each of the hormonal components being composed of a plurality of daily hormone units separately packaged and individually removable in the packing unit. The first hormonal component contains almost exclusively an estrogen preparation as an active hormonal ingredient, effecting a disturbance of the follicle stimulation. The second hormonal component contains, in combination, an estrogen preparation and a progestogen preparation in a therapeutic amount sufficient for ovulation inhibition. The total number of daily hormone units is equal to the total number of days of the desired cycle, with the first hormonal component including 5 or 14 daily units and the second hormonal component including 23 or 14 daily units. The plurality of daily units of the first hormonal component is lower than the plurality of daily units of the second hormonal component, characterized by such an arrangement of the daily units in the packaging unit that the daily units of the second hormonal component are taken first and the daily units of the first hormonal component are taken thereafter. The daily units of the second hormonal component do not contain the combination of biologically produced estrogen and synthetic estrogen.
