Zovia 1/35 (28)

Zovia 1/35 (generic name: ethynodiol diacetate and ethinyl estradiol) is a combined oral contraceptive pill used to prevent pregnancy. It contains a combination of estrogen (ethinyl estradiol) and progestin (ethynodiol diacetate) that work together to prevent ovulation, alter the uterine lining to prevent implantation, and thicken cervical mucus to block sperm from reaching an egg. Zovia 1/35 also helps regulate menstrual cycles and may reduce the risk of ovarian cysts, acne, and heavy or painful periods.
