A member asked:
Lamictal interacts with oral contraceptives. what would be a better method that would not interact with this medication?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Several: The best would probably be one of the IUDs. DepoProvera and Nexplanon would be other choices but would be associated with more irregular bleeding. Hope this helps.
