Recently I had my gyno switch me from
ortho-tricyclen-lo to regular
ortho-tricyclen because my insurance no
longer covered the lo and I didn't really
want to pay the extra money for a
non-formulary brand.
I got the rx filled the other day and I
was given a generic called tri-previfem.
I was wondering if anyone has tried this
and how their experience with it was?
I've heard terrible things about the
generic tri-nessa and i'm not sure if this
is different or not. Basically, if
tri-previfem is going to turn me into a
psycho with no sex drive and pack on
10lbs, i'm going to stick to the lo.
For reference, i've been on lo for about a
year with really no side effects and it's
been working great. I've got an entire
pack of it left so i'm going to finish
that before starting the tri-previfem, so
that'll give me some time to learn about
it.
I hope somebody can give me some insight.
Thanks in advance!
