How do ocps work in treating primary dysmenorrhoea?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Regulate: Ocps regulate your cycles preventing sudden drastic changes in the hormonal levels in your body. When you take a pill it has a certain amount of hormone that doesn't change day to day and that helps your body get adjusted and be more regular.
