Used to be a lurker, decided to get involved!!

After being on Ortho-Cyclen for many years, I have been switched to Lo/Ovral. I am the case that after being on the same pill for a while, irregular bleeding became more of a rule than an exception.

I am currently mid-pack on my 3rd month of this brand. BB the first month, okay the second month, a slight brown discharge for a while (noticed it after my excercise) so far this month. I can honestly say that I have NEVER missed a pill. Oh well, I am sure it will work itself out.

Anyone out there have any insight (or are currently using) Lo/Ovral? Care to share experiences?

I recently joined a gym, would one notice menstrual differences with a new diet (low cal, low fat)and adding excercise? I used to be a major couch potato.

Thanks!
