Ortho-to-ortho Lo Then Back
Posted: 12-02-04 02:30am

I was on ortho tri cylcen for 2 years then I got prescribed the generic brand and I didn't like how my face got real oily so my md prescribed me to be on the lo and I gained a woooping 8 lbs...Which was not good for me at all so I switched back to ortho.

Arrrghh!! People say you only gain a couple pounds while on birth control and ever since i've been on it i've gained about 20 lbs.. This is not good! Any suggestions on other pills??? I've heard yasmin, but don't know much about it. Please help! Crying
or Very sad

i was thinking of just completely getting off of birth control pills and just using condoms. I don't know though...! I was irregular before I started the pills, i've heard people use the pills to regulate their period, if I get off of it will I get it every month or am I going to be irregular again??
