Q: I am on orsythia birthcontrol..i only been on it since september.this month i really did not have a cycle browndischarge is this normal for this pill?

In the first few months of any hormonal birth control you can have irregular spotting at some point. However, if this is not blood, just brown discharge, and if especially is associated with pain or irritation this could be related to a vaginal or pelvic infection. I would suggest you see your gynecologist for exam and treatment if necessary.

Q: I have been on birth control for about 9 months and i was switched from sronyx to orsythia since then i've gained weight and had an increase in breast

Both Sronyx and orsythia have 20mcg of ethinyl estradiol and 0.2mg of levonorgestrel. They are the same, but with a different brand name. You should investigate other causes of weight gain and increase in breast size such as pregnancy and low thyroid hormone levels.

Q: Hi my pharmacy just changed my brand birth control (sronyx) for a genetic brand (orsythia) i would like to know what are my chances of getting pregnant ? thank you

You are taking the same drub but it is made by a different company( generic).It will not change anything and you are protected against pregnancy as before.Keep taking the pills as prescribed

Question 1

I've been on sronyx for about 2.5 years now, and it's been fine. my pharmacy ran out and gave me orsythia instead, and i've been terribly nauseous.

Accepted Answer

The dosages should be the same and they are the same medications but you will take some time to get used to the new medicine. The nausea usually disappears in 1-2 weeks.

Question 2

Does my body need time to adjust to avaine instead of orsythia or will i still be protected?

Accepted Answer

While you may have some breakthrough bleeding as your body adjusts to any change in pills, you are still protected against pregnancy as long as you take them at the same time everyday. Hope this helps.

Question 3

I usually take orsythia bcp every night at 8pm but i absent-mindedly took it at noon today. i am halfway through the second week. what should i do?

Accepted Answer

The safest course is to take your next dose at the regular time ; use condoms ; vaginal spermicide until you start the next pack. If you have take taken 11 or 12 pills, you are probably safer than if you missed an earlier pill. If you took a pill at 8pm, another at noon, ; another at 8pm after the noon pill, you should be protected. You will then start green pills 1 day earlier than usual.

Question 4

Started orsythia pill pack 2-3 hours late. am i still protected? been taking the pill packs at the same time everyday for 2 and a half years.

Accepted Answer

Taking your pill 2-3 hours late will not put you at risk for pregnancy.  You are still protected!  Its best to take your pills around the same time every day but a few hours either way won't change the effectiveness.    Best wishes!

Question 5

I just started the bc pill orsythia... whats chance of becoming pregnant if only on it for two weeks?

Accepted Answer

You need to use condoms for the first month that you are on birth control pills.
It also depends when in your cycle you started.

Question 6

I take orsythia pill at 10pm.  i forgot last night & took it today at 7am.  (9 hrs late). this is the 3rd pill in my cycle-should i use condom?

Accepted Answer

If you have been taking this for more than 10 days you have achieved a steady state, and although not ideal, the probability is that you are safe enough. Condom use is important to prevent STDs, but if you really want to be certain you will not get pregnant it will not hurt to use one for that purpose alone for the next day.

Question 7

I was supposed to start my new pack of orsythia on sunday but instead started it on monday and had protected sex on wednesday. could i be pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Regular daily use of ocps has a <1% failure rate.  You were one day late with your dose , and used protection.  Next time try not to miss a dose.  Good luck.
