When Do Side Effects Start? Ortho-lo Posted: 06-22-05 03:07am
I've been taking the pill now for 8 days.
I was just wondering how long it takes
before you start noticing how the pill is
going to effect you. (weight gain, acne,
nausea,etc.) i'm on orthotricyclen-lo. So
far nothing is different at all, but I
know it's way too early to tell. Is there
a pretty good average of time for the side
effects to begin in most people or is this
another "it all depends on your personal
chemistry" thing? Any info. At all, will
help. Thanks!

Orthotricyclen-lo is a great pill...Since
ive been on it my face hasnt broke
out.....It helps with that....Thats why
some doctors put girls on it...Its to
clear their face up....I havent gained
harldy any weight....The only thing I have
noticed is that my boobs have grown
alot!!...So just be ready for that!

I like it.... For the most part.
At first it was perfect 1-my face never
broke out 2-no cramps 3-light period
4-bigger boobs ;-) 5-no weight gain
however recently I need to be on a higher
dosage due to too much breakthrough
bleeding and terrible mood swings.
Bleh.
It's great if it's the right dosage. :d

Well I was on the pill for 3 years, and
about 2 weeks later I notice weight gain I
was 160 and went up to 200 in those 3
years the good thing is that I stayed on
that weight didnt go up any more :lol: and
I know it was the pill because I have been
off of it for 4 months , (iam traying to
get pregnant) :cry: I weight 184 now. I
guess it depends on every women's
body....
