Q: Can't Take Pill Anymore........

I've been on loestrin fe 1/20 for almost 2 years now, and also just had my insurance run out so I could not get anymore, so I was forced to take my sister's extra packs of pills loestrin fe 1.5/30... Its been a week now, and i've been very sick to my stomach and I really can't take much more of it, so I have decided to go off the pills starting tomorrow.... I'd rather just wait to get more of my old pills, since I had no side effects and it was a low dosage..... I am sexually active... But I will be cautious and careful till I start taking them again........... But I was wondering, going off of the pill... Is it going to make me feel even sicker not taking them anymore? My stomach can only take so much. I appreciate your time. Thanks.

It might not make you sicker, but your period might be a little off. Because you were on a certain kind, and then you changed it all of a sudden made it go kind of off, or you could have been having bad side affects to it. Just wait until you can get more of your brand or see a free clinic that can get your b/c without the cost. I think you should stay off any other brands until then.
