What's the difference between trisprintec and ortho tri cyclen?
Q. I was taking tri sprintec for a while and it cleared up my acne very nicely but it was making me sick when I ate certain foods and had alcohol. I stopped taking it and my skin broke out worse than it was before! Now i've been taking ortho tri cyclen low for about 3 weeks and my acne is the worst its ever been! What should I do? Is it worth it to try accutane?

A. ortho tri cyclen is a low dose of hormones,which is most probably why your acne has got worse,i suggest trying marvelon,its a combined pill.i used this for 3 months and had no yucky side effects like on other pills and my skin was great,boobs also went up a cup size lol it was really good for me! because of high blood pressure i went on to cerazette,its a mini pill so you dont get a period,my skin also improved on that!! its worth trying a few different pills,it took me a while to find one that suited me! goodluck x

How to use Ortho Tri Cyclen? When do I start taking the pills?
Q. I just got my first pack of Ortho Tri Cyclen. I'm not on my period right now. I'm not sure when to start taking the pills. When do I take the green ones? I'm very confused. I need some detailed instructions please
Asked by Frakin BSG Fan - Mon Mar 10 22:09:17 2008 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments
A. You are supposed to take the first white pill on the sunday after you start your period. If your period begins on sunday, take it that day. After you finish your white pills, begin the light blue ones. After you finish the light blue ones, start the dark blue ones. After you finish the dark blue ones, start the green ones. Eventually, you should be on a set cycle and your period should start the day you start the green pills or the day after. Then repeat with your next set.

Can taking Prenatal Vitamins with Ortho Tri-cyclen Lo Help Stabilize Hair Loss?
Q. I've been on Ortho Tri-Cyclen for a year and been losing a good amount of hair ever since I started taking it. My doctor is switching me to Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo, so I hope that might help. I've had many people (including one doctor) recommend taking prenatal vitamins, saying it'll help. It's to the point where I really don't want to be on birth control anymore. What do you guys think?
Asked by Clusterfunky - Thu Feb 5 17:02:16 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. The reason for taking vitamins while on birth control is because oral contraceptives deplete many important nutrients. Some of the nutrients depleted by oral contraceptives are extremely important for healthy hair growth. This includes zinc, B vitamins, vitamin c, selenium, magnesium and more. Vitamin depletion is not the only reason that oral contraceptives cause hair loss in some people. It is also due to the hormonal manipulation and the subsequent physiological changes. One has no way of predicting how the pill will effect them until it is in the system for several months. Sometimes the pill will help a hair loss problem and other times it will cause a hair loss problem. Unfortunately when birth control starts the hair loss process,… [cont.]

Is Ortho Tri-Cyclen LO ok for breastfeeding moms?
Q. I am breastfeeding my 7 week old daughter exclusively and at my 6 week checkup my ob prescribed ortho tri-cyclen LO. It contains a low dose of estrogen and the pamphlet warns that it might affect the quality and quantity of breastmilk. I've had an oversupply of milk from the beginning but I'm still nervous about taking it. Should I ask for a progestrin only pill? My period also returned right away so I am also concerned if a progestrin only pill will be effective enough.
Asked by subwife8176 - Thu Aug 24 20:07:18 2006 - - 9 Answers - 0 Comments
A. If it contains estrogen, then I would NOT take it! Does your OB know you are breastfeeding? It's recommended that any estrogen-containing contraceptive be AVOIDED until baby is at least six months old AND after baby is well-established on solid foods. You REALLY should be on a progestin only pill if you choose to use hormonal birth control. Examples of progestin-only birth control methods: the progestin-only pill (POP) also called the "mini-pill" (Micronor, Errin, Nor-QD, Ovrette, Microval, etc) the birth control injection (Depo Provera) the progesterone-releasing IUD (Mirena, Progestasert) the birth control implant (Norplant, Implanon). For MOST mothers, progestin-only forms of contraception do not cause problems with milk… [cont.]

Is there an alternative to Ortho Tri Cyclen because of depression?

I reversed the order and started with the ones right after the sugar pills.

A. don't worry there really isn't a correct day or time to start it. plan parenthood was right you can start it when ever you want. usually the package will say to start the day you get your period or the sunday after you start your period. but that is really just so its easier to recall when you should take the pills. the packages also usually come with a sticker packet so that instead of seeing sunday-saturday along the top you can make it monday-sunday, tuesday-monday and so on so you can start when ever you want. i started first day of my period just cuz. and my doctor has said you really can start it what ever day you wish. most people start their period 2-3 days after starting the placebo week. but don't worry if it doesn't come until… [cont.]

stopped taking ortho tri cyclen and now we've decided to try for a baby?
Q. I've been taking ortho tri cyclen for a little over a month and my husband and I have decided to try to have a baby. What are my chances and how long will it take after only taking the pill for a short period of time?

A. Every woman is different. For some woman (including myself) after stopping a pill they actually become more fertile. For other woman it can take a long time to get pregnant after stopping the pill. I got pregnant a month and a half after stopping orthtricyclen and I was one it for 7 years. All you can do is try, and remember it is not always a fast process. Even if you have sex on the correct day, statistics say you only have a 25% chance of conceiving.
