Just a Couple Questions
Posted: 02-13-07 17:36pm

Ok I have been on birth control for like a year and half now, and I was on orthro trycyclen lo, recently my doctor changed me over to microgestin because I would get my period and then not get it and then get breakthrough bleeding and then have my period like off and on for like 6 months. Im on my third pack of microgestin and I got my period the first time on time with the new pack. The second time I got my period 2 weeks early and then didnt get it the time I was supposed to. I just started my third pack a little while ago so its not time to get my period yet. Ive talked to my friends and they have told me to switch birth controls. But im not sure on which one to go on. Ive heard yaz is really good but then again I want to get my period every month if that sounds weird. Does anyone have any suggestions on whats going on or what I should switch to?

Bc pills are trial and error, you have to find the best one that fits your body.

I would suggest talking with your doctor about your concerns =)

nuva ring is known to cause fewer problems with breakthrough bleeding and side effects in general.
