Those on Birth Control Pills............
Can you recommend the one your taking? I need to switch mine (have a lot of mid-month bleeding) and just wanted to pass some ideas to my Dr. Thanks in advance!

It's been a while, but I took loestrin FE for years and had nothing negative happen. I'd recommend it.

Re: Those on Birth Control Pills............
I am on Sprintec 28, only because my insurance does not cover BC and Target Pharmacy has it for $9 a pack. I don't really have any issues with it. In the past, before having kids, I had been on Loestrin and I didn't get a period which was good but also kind of worried me (and caused issues once I wanted to get pregnant).

Birth control is free now, isn't it? I pay nothing for mine.

Yes, I believe all birth control is free now under Obama. I don't pay anything for mine either.

Really?? Wow well I've been paying $9 a pack at the pharmacy! Do I have to have a specific card or something?

Nope, should be free. Mine has been free for more than the past year or more.

Re: Those on Birth Control Pills............
I was on Apri. It's a very very low hormone pill. I tried everything...literally everything and they all made me very sick. Apri is the only BCP that didn't make me ill. I was on it for 13 years with no problems.
