Triphasil Oral Contraceptive

Triphasil is a combination oral contraceptive (contains both estrogen and progestin) commonly prescribed to prevent pregnancy. It works by causing changes in the mucus of the cervix which makes it difficult for sperm to penetrate and for an egg to implant. It may also be used to treat acne in women 14 years of age and older or to regulate the menstrual cycle.
