Discharge on Mircette/Karvia

[sltrawick]

I have been on Mircette since Jan. Because of insurance reasons, I'm now taking the generic of Mircette - Karvia. (just started Sunday on the Karvia). Anyway, every day now, I've been having a discharge, like I used to get before I was on the pill when I was ovulating. I hope that's not the case, but I was wonder why am I having a discharge for the past 4 days?

Discharge is common on any pill. If you never experienced discharge when using Mircette, your body is probably just reacting to the different INACTIVE ingredients in Kariva. There's no need to be concerned about ovulation; Kariva contains the exact same active hormones as Mircette, so if you're using it perfectly, it's highly unlikely that ovulation would occur.
