Hello all, Im a 24 year old mother of 3, and done having children. I was on the pill on and off from 17 till about 21. I never remember having any problems with taking any BCP. Well in Oct. of 04, after my last child I got a Meriena IUD put in. I loved its effectivness, but couldnt deal with the bleeding all the time.(I wasnt one of the lucky ones whose periods stopped all together)I got it removed yesterday. My doctor gave me
orta-novum 1/35 generic is Necon 1/35. I have no idea why Im scared as hell to start BCP's again but I am. I wanted to know everyones input if they have taking this pill. I was on one website and 75% of the women hated it. Ive heard some really scarry side effects as in depression, axiety, nervousness, vomiting and very bad mood swings. I dont want oneofthese. Duh!! I just would like to hear some more input please. Im suppossed to start this pill on Sun the 15th, but I would much much rather just not have sex if Im gonna be sick and moody. Is there any good side effects to this pill?? Please respond...
Thanks so Much!!

I've been using Necon 1/35 for 7 months now. I love it. The only discomfort I experienced was an upset stomach the first day of the first active week. If I ate some toast or crackers when I took it the pill, I didn't have this problem. After a couple of months, I was fine.

I don't have a problem with libido either, but I supose everyone is different.

Before Necon I was taking Ortho-Lo. It didn't work for me so the doctor switched me to Necon.

So, all in all, it's a pro in my book.

I hope this helps.

Hi! I want you to know that necon 1/35 is my favorite pill and a favorite of several of my friends. I have one friend who has horrible off-pill cramping and bleeding during her monthly but has very light bleeding and cramping while on this pill.

Oh, and be careful what you read on teh internet, except my posts of course...j/k. Many more people post when unhappy with their pills than when happy with them!

From what i have heard, it is a great first pill to try when trying to choose one.

Good luck.
