Asmita is a combination of Drospirenone & Ethinyl Estradiol.

Drospirenone is a synthetic progestin that is typically used in birth control. There have been concerns raised regarding its safety and is thus not recommended as a first line agent.

Ethynylestradiol is a derivative of estradiol. Ethynyl estradiol is an orally bio-active estrogen used in almost all modern formulations of combined oral contraceptive pills.

They are potent contraceptives and protect from getting pregnant. Both have a half life period of more than 30 hrs. Which means they are present in your blood for more than 30 hrs and act as contraceptives.

In your case you are really safe and there is no chance to get pregnant.

Thank you.
