Women over 40 years of age

For women who want to use oral contraception into their forties and beyond, Cerazette offers an effective, estrogen-free option.1

  • The use of combined oral contraceptives, is contraindicated in women over the age of 35 years who smoke 15 or more cigarettes per day.14
  • With a 12-hour 'missed pill' window Cerazette also offers older women the continued convenience of a daily oral pill to fit in with a changing daily schedule.1
  • Progestogen-only pills can be used in women over 40 years for as long as contraception is required, so long as there are no contraindications, risk factors or complications that would warrant their discontinuation.15
