Anyone Taking Ovcon??

Hi this is my first time taking Ovcon. I was told Ovcon is the closest pill to Ortho-tricyclen. Is this true? Any 411 will be greatly appreciated.

I use ovcon....been on it now for about 3 months. It has been the best pill for me. The ortho-tricyclen made me very sick to my stomach. I haven't had any problems with the ovcon. Ovcon also made it so I have very light, short and painless periods. Good stuff...just expensive since it does not come in generics.

I have been on it for months - it is the best pill I have ever taken and I think I've taken them all. Good luck!

Great! Thanks for the 411. It's nice to hear positive things about this pill I'm new to. I hope it works good for me as it did to you guys. Thanks.

How can it be considered similar to OTC?

OTC is a triphasic pill (it has different levels of hormones each week) and Ovcon is a monophasic pill (same level of hormones each week).
