Juleber is a 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. Juleber 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. Read More
Juleber is super easy to use. Simply take one pill every day, at the same time each day. Many women find that taking Juleber 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 These inactive/placebo pills are there to help you keep the habit of taking a pill every day.
Juleber birth control pills have two main active ingredients: Desogestrel 0.15 mg (progesterone) and Ethinyl Estradiol 30 mcg (estrogen).
The risks are very low, but some women have experienced unwanted side effects when taking Juleber. Minor ones include breast tenderness, headaches, nausea, swollen feet or ankles, and slightly elevated blood pressure or blood sugar levels. Positive side effects: reduced acne, fewer mood swings, and other benefits 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.

There is no direct link between Juleber and weight gain. Some women experience changes in their appetite that may lead to weight gain while taking Juleber. Others may find that their bodies retain more fluid while taking Juleber, even though they actually don’t gain any body fat.
One of our Patient Care Advisors or licensed physicians will always review the medications and supplements you’re currently taking before prescribing Juleber. Certain drugs (recreational, over-the-counter, or prescription) can interact with Juleber and make it less effective at preventing pregnancy. Drugs that may interact with Juleber include HIV drugs, anti-seizure drugs, antibiotics, and even herbal supplements like St. John’s wort.
Women who have high blood pressure or take medications to control blood pressure should not take Juleber. Our Pandia Health medical team recommends other options including progestin-only pill (POPs), IUDs with hormone (Mirena, Liletta, Kyleena, Skyla), copper IUDs, implants (nexplanon), the birth control shot (depo-provera), or condoms and spermicide.
You shouldn’t smoke anyway, but especially not if you take estrogen containing birth control pills like Juleber. Smoking increases the risk of serious side effects like blood clots, especially in women who are older than 35.
Don’t take Juleber if you’re allergic to any of its ingredients. Signs and symptoms of an allergic reaction to Juleber are rare and usually very mild and may include itching, hives, or dizziness. Serious allergic reactions to Juleber can occur in very rare cases. Stop taking Juleber and call 911 immediately if you experience swelling in the lips, mouth, or tongue, or if you have a hard time breathing.
Juleber isn’t for everyone. Women with a history of certain medical conditions like heart disease, high blood pressure, kidney disease, liver cancer, or severe migraines should not take Juleber. Our Pandia Health Care Advisors are standing by to help you figure out the best birth control method given your health history.

It’s not true that Juleber causes infertility. If you’re taking Juleber and want to have a baby, talk to your doctor and then stop taking the medication. Normal fertility should return within one or two menstrual cycles after your last pill. Dr. Yen explains more about birth control and infertility in this video. Watch to learn more!
