Re: what are the best/most favored BC Pills?

I've been on Lo/Ovral for the past month. So far I haven't had any side effects. Has anyone else experienced anything on this pill?

Re: what are the best/most favored BC Pills?

I started it last week and all I feel is much better. I've been on Depo for 2 years and I feel like I'm waking up after being in a depressed sleep, lol.

Have you experienced any weight gain at all?

Re: Lo/Ovral side effects?

i just started my 5 month of lo ovral! i take the generic low ogestrel, but needless to say , its the best experience ever compared to the YAZ i was on before. i used lo ovral to control my heavy bleeding caused by not enough estrogen in yaz. I absoloutley love this pill and ive had no side effects at all, and weight loss if that matters to anyone ( although i am underweight so its not a "plus" for me) yaz gave me cramps, and after two months on lo ovral, the cramps went away, and the bleeding is extremely light and is around 3 days.


ive read about other peoples experinces with this pill and they have all been: no side effects. its almost freaky LOL and for anyone interested in sex drive. it has one of the higher/higest androgen levels which is a testosterone booster , which can indicate an increase or improved sex drive. i have noticed an increase, but i have never really had a problem with it on other pills.

as for acne. i had gottensome hormoonal acne before the pill, and my skin is beautful on this pill , despite the androgen levels.
