I had been taking Orthocept for years and thought I would try something else so I switched to ortho-trycyclen (sp, i dunno ) and I got massive headaches and bad periods so I to get off of them. I take Marvelon now and it seems to be okay.

and was fine with it! I even piggy backed the pills and only had 3 or so periods a year! The first couple of months trying to piggy back, I had some break through bleeding but no headaches or anything. When I stopped it about 2 years ago, I didn't notice any changes either!

I took it for seven years without trouble of any kind, not even baby trouble.

The only issue I found was that the hormonal imbalance I had until it got into my system wasn't fun for anyone. But after that first month it was smooth sailing!
