How good is ortho tri-cyclen lo?

I was on the depo provera inj. For over 2 years. I got off of it because of the way it made me feel about 3 months ago. Now I am choosing to get on the pill and they gave me ortho tri-cyclen lo. I was wondering about the side affects, and pretty much everyones opinions on this birth control pill. Thank you.

Answer #1

I’m on Ortho Cyclen which is a monophasic pill (same dosage of hormones in each pill) where-as Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo is a Tri-phasic pill (3 different combinations of hormones through the cycle)

What I’ve read around about, it’s easier to get pregnant on Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo, because a missed pill really messes you up. In my experience with Ortho Cyclen… I’ve missed pills and have never gotten pregnant. (but that doesn’t mean anything… I’ve never tried to get pregnant so maybe something is wrong with me?)
