Zelleta

Zelleta is an oral contraceptive medication categorised in a group referred to as mini pills. These types of pills rely completely on the active ingredient called progesterone, or at the very least a synthetic type of it known as desogestrel. The progesterone receptor’s synthetic activators are commonly called progestogens. A contraceptive pill with progestogen-only is enough to prevent pregnancy effectively, even if you take them after up to 12 hours following sex.
