I had been on Desogen for two years and my PCP said that Orthocept was the same amount of estrogen and was cheaper in the in site pharmacy so I switched. I HATE Orthocept, I will go back to Desogen after I use up these pills.
I have read many of the testimonials from people that have just recently switched to it or have only been on it a couple of weeks. All of the exact same symptoms happened to me when I switched to Orthocept. My doctor said that it takes 3-6 months for your body to get used to a new pill. I guess not every pill is for everyone.
