A member asked:
Do you know any birth control pill with good reviews and low side effects? ortho tri cyclen (ethinyl estradiol and norgestimate) lo caused my severe vaginal dryness and stomach upset
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Birth control: There are many pills. Most have their benefits and draw backs. Picking a pill is a crap shoot. But, with your issue if the only problem was vaginal dryness then using an increased estrogen pill will probably fix it. Try regular TriCyclen and give the stomach upset time to resolve, often 3 months. DrG
