Dienogest is a potent fourth-generation selective progestogen. Unlike combined hormonal treatments, it does not contain estrogen. It works by reducing the body’s endogenous production of estradiol, thereby suppressing the stimulatory effects of estrogen on the endometrium. This leads to the shrinking of endometrial lesions (tissue growing outside the uterus), a significant reduction in pelvic inflammation, and a marked decrease in the chronic pain associated with endometriosis.
In Nigeria, Dienogest 2mg is a premier clinical choice for the long-term management of endometriosis. It is available through registered pharmacies like Sanlive Pharmacy to ensure patients receive authentic, high-stability tablets manufactured under strict international standards (such as those by Bayer under the brand Visanne) to maintain the precision of the hormonal dose.
Important: This is a prescription-only hormonal medication. It is not an oral contraceptive, although it may suppress ovulation in many women. You should use non-hormonal barrier methods (like condoms) if pregnancy prevention is required. Before starting, consult a gynecologist if you have a history of blood clots, severe liver disease, or unexplained vaginal bleeding.
Dienogest 2mg Tablets are primarily used to:
Treat the painful symptoms of endometriosis (pelvic pain, painful periods, and pain during intercourse)
Reduce the size and activity of endometrial lesions located outside the uterus
Provide a targeted hormonal environment that discourages the growth of new endometrial tissue
Offer an estrogen-free alternative for women who cannot tolerate combined hormonal pills
Improve the overall quality of life by reducing the need for heavy daily painkillers
This product is suitable for:
Adult women diagnosed with endometriosis requiring long-term medical management
Patients experiencing chronic pelvic pain that has not responded to standard analgesics
Women seeking to manage endometriosis symptoms without the side effects of estrogen
Not recommended for: Individuals with active venous thromboembolic disorder (blood clots). It is strictly contraindicated for patients with current or past severe hepatic disease (liver tumors or impaired function) or known/suspected sex-hormone-dependent malignancies (like breast cancer). Not for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Take exactly as prescribed; the standard dose is one 2mg tablet once daily
Treatment can be started on any day of the menstrual cycle
Tablets should be taken at the same time every day to maintain a steady hormonal level
Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water; it can be taken with or without food
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, but do not take two tablets on the same day to make up for a missed one
Do not stop treatment even during menstrual bleeding; the tablets are taken continuously
Dienogest is highly effective, but some individuals may experience:
Changes in menstrual bleeding patterns (spotting, irregular bleeding, or cessation of periods)
Headache or breast tenderness
Changes in mood, such as increased irritability or depressed mood
Mild weight gain or acne
Rare: Decreased bone mineral density during very long-term use
Discontinue use and seek medical attention if you experience sudden severe leg pain/swelling (signs of a clot), yellowing of the skin (jaundice), or an unusually severe headache.

Will I still have my period while taking Dienogest?
Most women experience changes in their bleeding. Some may have light spotting, while others may stop having a period entirely (amenorrhea). This is normal and is part of how the medicine works to rest the endometrial tissue.
Can I get pregnant while taking this?
While Dienogest suppresses ovulation in many women, it is not a licensed contraceptive. You must use a non-hormonal method like condoms to prevent pregnancy, as hormonal birth control cannot be combined with Dienogest.
How long do I need to take it?
Treatment for endometriosis is often long-term. Clinical studies have shown safety for up to 15 months or longer, but your gynecologist will determine the best duration based on your symptom relief.
