Switch to a LARC: If you really wish to use a most effective, forgettable Long Acting Reversible Contraceptive (LARC) ask a knowledgeable and caring gynecologist for either an IUD or a subdermal implant. Triphasil, (ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel) like all combination oral contraceptive pills has risks and benefits but are less effective in preventing pregnancies than the LARC's. Be safe. Use a LARC and condoms too.
