I have taken Ovcon for the past year. I do not smoke or drink. I have normal blood pressure, cholesterol. I am 27 years old. I do have a low iron count. About three to four weeks ago I woke up with a Charly horse in my calf. The pain slowly grew until I was limping. I went to ER and they said it was probally a sprain. A week later the pain was so bad I was could barely walk. I went again into the ER and they found a blood clot (deep vein thrombosis) in my thigh. Dr's said it is possible the pill is related since I had no pre-existing factors. The only birth control I will ever use again is condoms.

Since I started my period when I was 13 (I'm 26 now), they have always been irregular. I have been on and off with Ortho TriCyclen since the birth of my son in 1999. I finally just quit birth control all together (except condoms). These past few years I could go 3 or 4 months without having a period. Since the end of last year, I've been bleeding so much. So, I finally went to the doctor and she started me on these new pills. I've never heard of them before. I started Ovcon last month. Everything was fine at first. I stopped bleeding the day I started the pills which was the day I went to the doctor. A few weeks passed. My right leg has really been hurting and aching like I have a "charley horse". I began bleeding again on February 28th. Only a couple of weeks after I started these pills. I finally stopped bleeding on March 12th. That was only because I took 3 pills a day for 3 days just to try and stop the bleeding. It worked for the time being. Now when I'm back to taking 1 a day, I'm spotting. I can't have sex, even though I want to because when I try to have sex, I start bleeding again. I'm really frustrated. My next appointment is April 14th. Should I quit the pills now and just wait for my next appt.?

I switched from mircette to ovcon 35 because of sex drive issues. I have been on ovcon for 1 month and am miserable. I have had break through bleeding, severe headaches and nausea at 3am, and have been gaining weight like crazy. Yesterday i decided to quit birth control all together and go back to condoms. I think my husband and i had more sex when i was using them anyway.
