A member asked:

My friend ran out of birth control, can she use mine.? she uses portia .15mg/.03mg and i use microgestin 1.5mg/30mcg.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Oral bcp's: Many of the low dose oral contraceptives contain about the same amounts of hormones, but if your friend "ran out" at the end of a normal cycle, advise her to call her gyn provider for a renewal if she is still taking the placebo pills at the end of the package. Her physician can call in a refill for her, and it is always best to have the personal physician prescribe a renewal, and not take yours.
