Looks like a lot of good things are being said about Mircette..
That could be an option too. I'm just chicken about changing to a lower dose because I'm so afraid of getting pregnant...and of having funky side effects!
I'm sorry you've had to go through such an uncomfortable experience with that dumb bag, and I really hope Nordette helps! it would be nice to not have to switch to a whole new formula! keeping my fingers crossed for you!

You will not believe this! They just called me again and told me that they will give me 5 more samples of Estrostep because Nordette is the same thing as Levora and shes refusing to give me a prescription for it. She said that if by the time I finish these 8 packs (she gave me 3 trials the other day when I was there), and If I see no improvement or things are worse.. I can get the Nordette to try again. Wow- This is the weirdest experience with a Doctor that Ive ever had. Crazy!!!!
Anyways- I guess I will keep you posted on how Estrostep Fe is. If it agrees with me, maybe you can ask your gyno for it because we both liked Nordette, and seemed to have the same problems with Levora..So maybe our chemistry would react similar to Estrostep. My sister takes Mircette, by the way, and she loves it. She definately saw an improvement in acne (she always had it on her cheeks, whereas for me...I got it mildly on the chin and after nordette I had NOTHING) She gets occasional breakouts on it, but nothing too major. Also, She said she has never gotten headaches, nausea, upset stomach or anything else associated with Bcps... So maybe thatd be a good one to try.
wow, she must really want her comission money from the Estrostep Fe..
If you're giving it a try, good luck!! I hope it works out well. Maybe it will!
But if it doesn't and you have to go back to the Dr. for Nordette I'd make sure to pack a good knuckle-sandwich for her to eat her words and her lack of concern for your feelings (and god knows probably the illegality of what she's doing)
Anyway, keep me posted - I'll switch back to Nordette and see what happens {removed}
Happy Pilling!

Oh great.. You have to let me know if the switch to Nordette gets your skin in check.
I know right.. Whats with the pushing of the Estrostep?? She gave me 8 months worth of samples though...So Its not like shes really making a commission for awhile.. Unless it still counts, I dont know. What a real wacko. I miss my old gyno
Anyways.. I guess Im stuck with this pill.. I was wondering why she didnt give me Orthotricyclen because I heard thats the absolute best one for skin issues. Who the heck knows what goes on in this Doctoral Underworld.
