Hi, I hope I understood the question right... I do have insurance and I pay $5.00 but I do know that if I didn't have insurance the pills would cost me $35.00. That is what my pharmacist told me. I use Junel Fe 1/20, it is the generic for Loestrin. Thanks!

Ok, so I use Enpresse, which is a Triphasil generic. Currently, it's costing me like $30-35/pack, but I haven't gone to the doc yet to get a prescription in the Army system. I hear BCPs are free in the Army, so I'm hopeful. Anyways, everyone says either free or really cheap like a few dollars, so I need to get my butt in there and do it (of course, it's not a health thing, cuz I had my last exam in February, so I'm not due for that for a while, even tho I know they will torture me when I go in, which is probly why I've been putting it off!!). So yeah, all of you cross your fingers that when I do go in BCPs are free, cuz that'd be awesome!!

The lastest pill I was on (MICRONOR) cost $6 for a 3 month supply if I got it through my insurance company's mail order pharmacy...I have used others that have been anywhere from $10-$30 (the higher pills were before insurance companies had to cover birth control pills-I had to pay $30/month for my pills).....

The last time I bought my pills (Seasonal) our insurance deductible had not been met so I had to pay $111. Ouch! Wasn't expecting it when I went to get them.

With my insurance, I pay around $17 for each of my depo shots. Last time I had it, the insurance company made a mistake and I got a bill from my gyn for $108!! Yikes - thankfully they straightned that one out!
