About Preme
What is Preme?
Preme is a Combined Oral Contraceptive (COC) containing Desogestrel 150 mcg + Ethinyl Estradiol (EE) 30 mcg as its active ingredients. It is manufactured by Berlin Pharmaceutical in Thailand.
Combined oral contraceptives work by suppressing ovulation, thickening cervical mucus to prevent sperm from reaching the egg, and thinning the uterine lining to reduce the chance of embryo implantation.
Preme has the same formulation as Marvelon (the originator brand by Organon). The only differences are the brand name and a more accessible price — it is a Thai generic at an affordable cost.
What is Preme used for?
Contraception: Preme is used for pregnancy prevention. When taken correctly and consistently, it is up to 99% effective.
Additional benefits:
- Regulates menstrual cycles
- Reduces menstrual pain
- Decreases menstrual blood flow
- May help reduce acne in some users
Does not protect against: Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) — condoms should be used alongside for STI prevention.
How to Take Preme / Dosage
Dosage: Take 1 tablet daily at the same time each day. Each pack contains 21 tablets.
How to take: Take for 21 consecutive days → stop for 7 days (withdrawal bleeding will occur) → start a new pack on day 8.
Starting for the first time:
- Start the first tablet on day 1 of your period — protection is immediate
- If starting on another day, use additional protection (condoms) for the first 7 days
If you miss a pill:
- Less than 12 hours late — take it as soon as you remember; protection is maintained

How Does Preme Compare to Other Contraceptives?
Preme vs. Marvelon: Same active ingredients — Desogestrel 150 mcg + EE 30 mcg. Marvelon is the originator brand by Organon at a higher price. Preme is a Thai generic by Berlin Pharmaceutical at a more affordable price. Equivalent efficacy.
Preme vs. Mercilon: Mercilon contains only 20 mcg EE (low-dose) compared to Preme's 30 mcg EE. Mercilon may suit those wanting lower estrogen to reduce side effects but may have more spotting initially.
Preme vs. Yasmin: Yasmin uses Drospirenone instead of Desogestrel, offering anti-androgenic (acne reduction) and anti-mineralocorticoid (reduces water retention) properties. Better for acne or bloating but at a higher price.
Preme vs. Cerazette: Cerazette is a progestin-only pill (Desogestrel 75 mcg) without estrogen. Suitable for those who cannot use estrogen, such as breastfeeding women or those with COC contraindications.
How Quickly Does Preme Work?
If you start Preme on the first day of your period, it provides immediate pregnancy protection. If starting on any other day, use additional protection (such as condoms) for 7 days.
Important to know:

Combined oral contraceptives may cause slight weight gain in some users, mostly due to water retention rather than fat. This usually resolves after 2–3 months of adjustment. If concerned, Yasmin with its anti-mineralocorticoid properties may help reduce water retention.
During the 7-day break, withdrawal bleeding normally occurs. Occasionally missing a period can be normal, but if you miss two consecutive periods, take a pregnancy test and consult your doctor.
Not recommended. Preme contains estrogen which may reduce breast milk supply. Breastfeeding women should choose a progestin-only pill like Cerazette, which is estrogen-free and safe during breastfeeding.
Yes. After stopping Preme, fertility returns to normal within 1–3 months. Some women may conceive as early as the first month after stopping. There is no need to wait.
