What is Aranelle Birth Control Pills?

Aranelle is a triphasic combination oral contraceptive pill (OCP, birth control medication, birth control pills). It prevents pregnancy by preventing the release of an egg (ovulation), and thickening the cervical mucus, blocking sperm from getting into the uterus and getting to the egg. Read More

How to Use Aranelle

Aranelle is super easy to use.

Simply take one pill every day, at the same time each day. Many women find that taking Aranelle before bedtime or just after their evening meal helps reduce nausea and other side effects.

After taking 21 days of active pills, you’ll switch to 7 inactive pills with no hormones that are there to keep you in the habit of taking your pill every day.

Aranelle Dosage

Aranelle uses a blend of two hormones, Norethindrone (progesterone) and Ethinyl Estradiol (estrogen) in different doses along the 28 days tablet cycle: light yellow tablets, 9 white tablets, 5 more light yellow tablets, and then 7 peach tablets. Each light yellow tablet contains norethindrone, USP 0.5 mg and ethinyl estradiol, USP 0.035 mg, each white tablet contains norethindrone, USP 1 mg and ethinyl estradiol, USP 0.035 mg, and each peach tablet contains inert ingredients.

Benefits of Aranelle

  • Periods get lighter. If you are usually a 7-day person, it goes down to like 5 days. If you use 5 pads/tampons a day, it goes down to 3.
  • You can use it to make #PeriodsOptional. Just skip the last week of pills and go straight into the next pack. See our CEO/Founder’s talk at the bottom of this page.
  • Improves acne.
  • Reduce the risk of ovarian cysts (as in polycystic ovarian syndrome [PCOS])

Aranelle Side Effects

The risks are very low, but some women have experienced unwanted side effects when taking Aranelle.

Minor ones include breast tenderness, headaches, nausea, swollen feet or ankles, and slightly elevated blood pressure or blood sugar levels. Positive side effects are also a possibility, too — reduced acne, fewer mood swings, and other perks are fairly common.

The chances of serious side effects are extremely unlikely, but some cases have been documented. Symptoms include heart disease, blood clotting, shortness of breath, migraines, vision problems, slurred speech, confusion, and fainting. Those who wear contacts or are nearsighted may notice vision problems as well.

These may sound scary, but remember — they’re very rare.

Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT PRECAUTIONS SHOULD I BE AWARE OF WITH ARANELLE?

Every prescription comes with a tiny risk of allergies, including with Aranelle. The symptoms are usually mild and include: rashes, itching, dizziness. A severe allergic reaction would be: trouble breathing, and swollen lips, throat, or tongue. If this happens, call 911! Depending on your medical history, hormone-based birth control may not be for you. It’s important to discuss your medical history with your physician or one of our helpful Pandia Health Patient Care Advisors before you get started on Aranelle, especially if you’ve health problems such as cancer, heart disease, blood clots, uncontrolled diabetes, or high blood pressure.

 

HOW EASY IS IT TO GET ARANELLE?

Aranelle should be available at just about any pharmacy in your area. It does require a prescription from a doctor, though. If you’re hesitant to approach your doctor about Aranelle or simply prefer the privacy, convenience, and ease of the internet, give Pandia Health a try. We have licensed, birth control passionate doctors in every state we operate in. We also accept most forms of private insurance at Pandia Health.

HOW DOES ARANELLE WORK?

Aranelle prevents pregnancy by preventing the release of an egg (ovulation), and thickening the cervical mucus, blocking sperm from getting into the uterus and getting to the egg. Aranelle is also prescribed to: treat acne, reduce the risk of ovarian cysts (as in polycystic ovarian syndrome [PCOS]), treat painful or heavy periods, and more.

WHAT SHOULD I AVOID WHILE TAKING ARANELLE PILL?

As with any new prescription, you should go over anything you’re already taking with your doctor or Pandia Health Care Advisor before starting on Aranelle. This includes recreational drugs, over-the-counter meds, and even herbal supplements. Even something that seems relatively harmless such as St. John’s wort can cause Aranelle to be less effective at preventing pregnancy. There are certain meds you should absolutely bring up. These are aromatase inhibitors, cancer, HIV, seizure, and chronic hepatitis C medications.

 

HOW MUCH IS ARANELLE WITHOUT INSURANCE?

If you choose to pay out-of-pocket, Aranelle is pretty affordable since it is a generic brand, being $32 per pack. You can also choose Aranelle generics such as Leena or  Tri-Norilyn for the same price or $0 with insurance. Generics have the SAME active ingredients and dosage as the name brand. Watch our video explaining generics vs. brand birth control pills.

DOES ARANELLE STOP YOUR PERIOD?

No, Aranelle birth control does not usually stop your periods. There are 28 tablets on each packet and you should have a withdrawal bleed at some point during the last 7 days of each pack (aka placebo/sugar pill week). If you want to skip your period you can try using Aranelle for that. But you might be more successful with a monophasic pill (learn about monophasic vs. triphasic here).
