Oh mine do that so bad it drives me crazy!! I wear contacts and I am on ortho tri and by 5 or 6 i'm done. I didn't realize that birth control effects your eyes that much. These things make me sooo sick all the time, self concious and depressed my husband said to come off of them but I hate condoms. I'm lost, we don't want kids right now but I can't stay on these things for the side effects.

On the ortho patch insert it says if you wear contact lenses and notice a change in vision or an inablity to wear your lenses contat your health care professional. You should check on you insert of your birth control for similar instructions. This is week 2 for me the first time on birth control. I am journaling to document any changes. At the same time I have been eating a little cleaner and sometimes you go on a "cleansing time" and you feel more sluggish and down while the toxins in your body are being purged. So as before I was feeling down. My energy and my outlook is a lot better today. I "went" a lot yesterday and sometimes when you are clogged up and you release it you feel way better. Sorry for being graghic. I am going to give this patch a couple of months and continue making good diet choices and document what happens and what part of the month. And oh yah I have to admitt going on the forum and hearing that people have increased their breast size helped me decide to stay on it when I was about to call it quits. On the down side my pap smear was mildy abnormal and birth control is supposed to increase/and or decrease your chances of cervix cancer. I wish they would make up their minds!
