Description
Triregol as a Contraception
Triregol is a form of combined contraception that is taken to prevent unwanted pregnancy in women. It is an oral birth control pill to be taken consecutively for 21 days with a 7-day break or alternatively, depending on your consultation with the GP or doctor.
