Which pill is better for treating my perimenopause symptoms? levlen (ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel) or femme tab?

Dr. Jeff Livingston answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

About the same: Both of those are combination birth control pills. There is little difference. Your obgyn can guide you to determine if you are better served by an oral contraceptive or by a hormone replacement product designed for menopause. This will be based on risk factors, age and where you are in the stages of menopause.
