What are the side effects with Reclipsen, birth control and how likely are they to happen.

Reclipsen is a contraceptive medicine used to prevent pregnancy. It contains ethinyl estradiol and desogestrel which are a combination of female hormones that prevent ovulation (the release of an egg from an ovary). This medication also causes changes in the cervical mucus and uterine lining, making it harder for sperm to reach the uterus and harder for a fertilized egg to attach to the uterus.
