What is Jaimiess Extended-Cycle?
The combination drug Jaimiess contains female hormones, which prevent ovulation. Jaimiess can also cause changes to your cervical mucus, uterine lining, and sperm. This makes it more difficult for fertilised eggs to attach to the uterus. Use Jaimiess as a contraceptive to prevent pregnancy. This medication guide does not list all possible uses of Jaimiess.
