Alliecat, I wasn't aware that the Nuvaring had hormones in it! I'm not very informed when it comes to birth control I guess. I had never heard of the pill the prescribed me (Trinessa) The dr told me only to stay on it until I could get the Mirena thing but that kinda scares & I don't want to have to schedule an appt to do that.
Pygmypuff, it couldve been ortho tri cyclen lo. I have read online that the one I am taking is generic for ortho tri cyclen. I have also read it can be generic for ortho tri cyclen lo so that confusing. I don't think mine is low dose though. But that is scary that your cholesterol levels got so out of whack! I am afraid of having side effects like that but it's too soon to tell. I've only taken it for 5 days so far.
