switching pills.....
| Mon, 03-08-2004 - 2:14pm |
question for anyone who has switched pills.......I was on Ovcon 35 for about a year and because of insurance costs I needed to switch pills. So, Sunday I started taking Sprintec (generic Ortho-Cyclen) and I was just wondering if anyone ever had any issues when they switched. I am slightly concerned about pregnacy issues.....even though I didn't go more than seven days between taking the active pills. Anyway, thanks in advance to anyone who responds! :)

I don't think you have anything to worry about as far as the effectiveness of your new pill is concerned. It might be that you experience side effects for a few weeks. Some women, when switching pills will use back-up for the first cycle just for peace of mind.
Good luck

Thanks....I figured I'd be ok, since i'm still taking them at the same time I took my others ones and everything. Just wanted some reassurance! :)

You shouldn't need to worry!
