Any Solia Users?

I just went to the drug store to pick up my pills and they infrormed me that they will no long be carrying Apri and that I will be given Solia. I've had a good experiece on Apri and was wondering if anyone could give me their opinion on Solia good/bad. Thanks!

Re: Any Solia Users?

Hey Cakie,

I actually don't start the Solia till my next period. I have an extra month of pills incase I need to skip a period. I figured if I'm switching pills, I better finish up all the Apri first.

From what I've found, it's the same pill as Apri (ingredient wise) so I'm hoping that it will be similar experience wise. I switched from Aleese a few years ago to Apri. It was a similar experience, but my period came much later in the week with the Apri, so I was at my heavest on the weekends. I'm hoping that the new pill will correct that, or at least come by Wednesday so it won't be heavy on the weekend.

I'm not sure about this but I think Solia is a pretty low hormone pill and I never had any ill side effects, although everyone is different. I wish you a good expereince on the pill, it's nice to know when your period is coming! I'll check back for your comments and post mine as well.

I wonder if Apri isn't being produced anymore since the same thing happend to you at the pharmacy?

Re: Any Solia Users?

Hey there! I haven't posted in a while because my period decided to come 20 days late so I've had to wait a while to start my solia. frustrating but at least I'm not pregnate. Anyway I just took my first pill today! I got a little nauseous but nothing horrible, it only lasted a minute. This is my first bith control pill ever and I really hope it helps my acne and cramps. Id love to hear your experiances with this pill since no one else seems to take it! I'll post back when I have been on it for a bit longer and have more to say.

Cakies
How is your birth control experience going so far? I know you were worried because you weren't on the pill before. It's going to take a month or so to see how you full adjust to it though. I have about a week and a half to go before I start the Solia. I"ll check back soon.
