what is this drug? How does it work?
Have you been satisfied with it, if you've
ever been on it? How does it compare to
others.
I just got switched from estrostep to
zovia (damn that zovia crap! I got so
sick on it! ) to lo-overal. Is
it anything like estrostep, where it
starts out with a low dose and gets
progressively higher? Or is it just a
constant low dose? I couldn't stand the
constant 35 mcg in zovia... It made me so
sick. anyways, do you
think lo-overal will be helpful?
Thanks so much!

Lo/ovral is a constant low dose. Some
women do better on mono phasic pills(all
one dose), and some women do better on
triphasic pills.
Why did you switch if you liekd estrostep
so much?

Accursed insurance. *sniffles* thanks
for the help; I hope this one won't make
me sick like the last one they tried to
put me on.

Zovia also made me very sick...nausea,
vomiting, headaches, dizziness,
breakthrough bleeding 2 weeks before I was
due to start my period. BTB still hasn't
stopped, my dr called in a prescription
for lo-overal which I will begin after I
finish this pack of zovia. Hopefully there
won't be as many side effects.

I'm on triphasic pills (orthotricyclen-lo)
and they work really well for me.
