A member asked:

Can different brands of desogestrel affect you differently?

Specializes in Obstetrics & Gynecology

Depends: on the dosing of desogestrel and the estrogen part of the pill which is ethinyl estradiol. Without knowing the specifics of your symptoms, difficult to present a general answer
