Effectiveness
How Isibloom Affects PatientsDesogestrel works by stopping ovulation in 97% of cycles. It also modifies the hormones luteinizing hormone and follicle stimulating hormone, causes menstrual delay, and thickens vaginal fluid. Desogestrel may also cause an increase in insulin, lipase activity, and fat deposits. Although desogestrel has been linked to an increased risk of blood clots, it usually does not cause a large change in total cholesterol levels.
How Isibloom works in the bodyDesogestrel is a drug that works by entering cells and binding to the progesterone receptor. This produces a transcriptional effect that changes the production of messenger RNA. Its active metabolite, etonogestrel, has high progestational activity and low androgenic activity.

Isibloom Toxicity & Overdose RiskTaking large doses of desogestrel can cause strong hormonal reactions, but it is generally not toxic. Tests in rats showed that the toxic dosage of desogestrel is higher than 2000mg/kg. Overdosing on desogestrel may cause nausea and missed periods, but no serious effects have been reported. Desogestrel does not appear to increase the risk of breast cancer, but there is some evidence that it may increase the risk of cervical pre-cancerous changes. However, these results are not conclusive.

Isibloom Reviews: What are patients saying about Isibloom?
5Patient Review
5/11/2022 I've been taking this pill for over five years and it works if you take it correctly. The only downside is that it makes my boobs feel heavy, which can be a bit uncomfortable. Otherwise, I haven't had any issues with mood or anything else.
4.7Patient Review
11/15/2019 I'm pretty darn pleased with this birth control. I can skip periods, which is great, and it's helped my acne. The only complaint I have is that I get mild headaches when I do get my period, but otherwise I'm thrilled!

Answered by AI
Can Isibloom cause infertility?
"The Isibloom birth control pill contains female hormones that prevent ovulation (the release of an egg from an ovary). Isibloom also causes changes in your 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."
Answered by AI
Is Isibloom a generic birth control?
"The active ingredients in Isibloom are ethinyl estradiol and desogestrel, which are naturally occurring hormones that prevent ovulation and also alter the cervical and uterine linings to prevent sperm movement and fertilized egg attachment."
Answered by AI
Will Isibloom make me gain weight?
"If you're concerned about weight gain while taking a birth control pill like Isibloom, be sure to maintain an active lifestyle and healthy diet. Some women experience a slight increase in weight when they start taking the pill, but this is usually because of fluid retention, not an increase in body fat."
