Does the dosage matter with birth control to keep it effective Or is it the lower the dosage the less affective it is or does it not matter. Does it still work not matter how high or low it is?

Both high and low dosages work the with same effectiveness. There isn't any difference. The trick is that the low dosage needs to be taken at the same time each day. With a high dosage, you are more "covered" if you forget to take one for about 12 hours. With a low dosage pill, you will also find you are unable to "skip" a period. The higher dosage pills allow you to sometimes continue on with the active pills and not take the sugar pills. You with therefore not have a period and therefore "skip" your period one month. Doctors prefer you to be on the lowest dosage pill that works for you. I took the lowest dosage pill for seven years with no problems.

What is the meaning of like cures like?

Like cures like is the basis of homeopathy, a treatment system intended to cure an illness rather than simply hiding its symptoms. Homeopathy is founded upon the idea that if two diseases having identical symptoms are within the body, the stronger disease will drive out the weaker one. An example of like cures like is the treatment for malaria. A tea brewed from a particular type of Peruvian tree bark was found to produce identical but stronger symptoms to those caused by malaria. While a person suffering from malaria experienced more discomfort for a short period of time after drinking the tea, the body could tolerate these symptoms and the person would find that the malaria had been cured when the effects of the tea had worn off. The compound in the bark is called quinine, and it became the most common medicine for treating malaria.
