Hello :) I've been taking OT-C for about 3 years now. The past few months, I have been experiencing about 2 straight weeks of btb. So I called my doc's office, inquiring about seasonale. They called me back telling me they are subscribing me Ovcon instead and I can take it in the same regimen as seasonale. I'm a little iffy because I researched it online and I only see press releases of when ovcon was approved by FDA. I'm the kind of person who likes to know some feedback on something before I try it - especially if it's a bc pill that I've never heard of. If anyone knows anything about this, I would appreciate some info. Thanks for listening :)

An Ovcon chewable was recently approved by the FDA but Ovcon 35 oral contraceptives have been around for a long time. Unfortunately the distributor Galen / Warner Chilcott’s product site http://www.galenplc.com/products/index.html for Ovcon, Estrostep and Loestrin is still under construction. For some information on Ovcon see http://www.fpnotebook.com/GYN107.htm and http://www.wdxcyber.com/ncontr13.htm and http://www.fpnotebook.com/GYN85.htm I hope this helps
Good luck
