Ovcon-35 Anyone One It???????? Posted: 02-19-05 07:56am
My girl friend just started birth control
and she is on ovcon-35. I was just
wondering if anyone has heard about it or
is on it themselves. Any information
would be great.
Thank you very much

All I know about it is that it's the first
chewable birth control. Actually, it can
be swallowed or chewed. If she chews it
she needs to drink a full 8oz glass of
water immediately after so that the full
dose reaches her stomach and no residue is
left in the mouth. It contains the same
ingredients as other bc pills.

Hi I just got a prescription of ovcon-35
and I start taking it on easter sunday.
The lady at the women's clinic is on it.
She is about 23 and she told me that this
was a great pill and she has been on it.
After I start taking it I could let you
know of any side effects or anything.
Kay. Bye :wink:

I just started taking it and have only had
one instance of break through bleeding so
far...I'm in my 3rd week of active pills
right now...Does anyone know if
breakthrough bleeding while on ovcon could
be a sign of pregnancy? Thanks in advance
for your response

It's not a sign of pregnancy. It's
totally normal for this to happen during
the first three months of beginning birth
control. It can even happen if you
switch brands.

This is my second month of ovcon-35. I
haven't had many problems but about a week
and a half after I started taking it I
began to get sick but only in the
mornings. I also began to spot for like 2
weeks on and off everyday until my period
started.I have been taking my second month
for a week and the sickness has almost
completely went away and I haven't
spotted. So haopefully everything is
fine.

I have been on ovcon 35 for 9 years &
there hasn't been a day I don't forget
about it. It has worked excellent for
me & hasn't given me any side effects.
All I know is my "gyno" has told me to
quit smoking since it can cause blood
clots if you are on the pill & smoke.
Other than that take it everyday and if
you miss any pills read your instructions
& it will tell you what to do if you
missed one, two, or three pills. Good
luck!

I am on my last week of ovcon-35 for the
second month and my period hasn't come on.
It is two days late and I am not sure if
it is normal. I spotted about 2 and a
half weeks of taking the pill this
month.
Thanks :?

I am currently taking ovcon 35. I have
been on it for about six months. I was
previoulsy on ovcon 50. I had no problems
with ovcon 50. It is a higher dosage than
ovcon 35. I had actually lost weight with
it. I also lost weight when my doctor was
put me on the dosage of 35. I am happy
with the birth control I am on. I would
stay on it as long as my doctor would let
me.
