When do you start your low ogestrel?
You should start taking Low-Ogestrel, a combination oral contraceptive pill, on the first day of your menstrual period or the first Sunday after your period begins. If you begin taking it on the first day of your period, it is effective immediately. If you start on a Sunday, you may need to use an additional form of contraception for the first seven days. Always consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
Does low ogestrel 28 cause weight gain?
Low-Ogestrel 28, like many hormonal contraceptives, may lead to weight gain in some users, but this effect varies from person to person. Some may experience fluid retention or changes in appetite, while others do not notice any weight change. Clinical studies have shown that significant weight gain is not a common side effect. If weight gain is a concern, it's best to discuss it with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
What is a replacement pill for lo- ovral?
Given the nationwide shortages of Lo-Ovral, Low-Ogestrel, and other generics, it's hard to find an exact match. I've been changing patients to Junel 1.5/30. Talk to your health care provider about alternatives. Hopefully the shortage will be over soon - rumors say it'll be under control in October 2012.
Will there be side effects if you switch birth control pills?
Most women do well on a wide variety of pills, and won't notice any change from taking a different pill. If you have any complaints about the new pill, contact your health care provider for advice. With so many pills in short supply due to manufacturing shortages, many women are finding it necessary to change pills. In our area, Lo Ovral, Lo-Ogestrel, Next Choice, and Plan B are out of stock in a number of pharmacies.
