What is Cyred?
Cyred is a birth control medication that contains feminine hormones that block the process of ovulation (the release of eggs from the ovary). Cyred also alters the cervical mucus and uterine lining, which makes it difficult for sperm to enter the uterus and makes it more difficult for a fertilized egg to connect in the uterus.
Cyred is a medicine used to prevent pregnancy. There are a variety of kinds of this medication on the market. Some brands are not mentioned in this leaflet. Cyred is also used for reasons not mentioned in this guideline.

The beginning pill occurs on the very first day of your cycle, or on the first Sunday following the start of your period. It is possible to require backup birth control like condoms or spermicides when you first begin using this medication. Follow the instructions of your physician.
You should take one pill a day for at least 24 hours in between. When the pills have run out, start a fresh pack the next day. You could become pregnant if you take a single pill a day. Make sure you refill your prescription before you are completely out of pills. Certain birth control packs include seven "reminder" pills to keep you on track with your cycle. Your period is usually scheduled to begin when you're using these pills to remind you. It is possible that you have bleeding that is a breakthrough. Inform your doctor if the bleeding persists or becomes very heavy.
Utilize a backup birth control pill if you're sick and vomiting a lot or have vomiting. Any surgeon or doctor who sees you must be aware that you're taking birth pills to control your birth. If you take birth medication to control your birth, you will have to visit your doctor frequently. Place it in a cool, dry place free of heat and moisture
What happens if I miss the dose?
Follow the instructions on the label of your prescription and read the medication guide or instructions sheets. In the event of missing a dose, you increase the chance of becoming pregnant. If you do not take one active pill, you should take two pills the next day you can remember. Take one pill per day for the remainder of the package.
If you do not take two active tablets in one row during weeks 1 and 2, you should take two pills a day for two days. Take one pill a day throughout the remainder of the week. Make sure to use a backup birth control plan for a minimum of 7 days after the missing pills.
If you fail to take two active pills during Week 3, you can throw away the remainder of the pack and begin a fresh pack the next day when you are a Day 1 starter. If you're a Sunday-based starter, continue taking a pill each day up to Sunday. When you are done, take out the remainder of your pack and begin a new pack for the day.
If you fail to take three active pills in a row during the week of 1 or 2, discard the rest of your pack and start a fresh pack the following day, if you're a day 1 starter. If you're a Sunday-based starter, you should continue taking a pill each day up to Sunday. On Sunday, toss away the remainder of the pack and begin a new pack for the day. If you take 2 or 3 pills per day, it is possible that you might not experience a period for the rest of the month. If you don't have two consecutive months, consult your physician because it could be that you're pregnant.
