Does anyone get a period while on Lybrel? I have been on Lybrel for 1 month. I have had some breakthrough/spotting bleeding but now I am getting my usual heavy/clotting period. This period is just a bad as it was before the Lybrel. I also know that this is not breakthrough/spotting bleeding. Does anyone know why?
Can You Have A Period On Lybrel Birth Control? I would rather have a period using Lybrel than not - just to reassure myself that I'm not pregnant. Can I take Lybrel for the 21 - 28 day cycle, quit and have a period and then resume the birth control? Also, do I need additional birth control during the first 7 days again, or is it going to protect against pregnancy immediately again? Many thanks!
Lybrel birth control pills and upper respiratory infections? It says on the website and in the patient pamphlet that Lybrel can make you more prone to upper respiratory infections (it was one of the more commonly reported side effects in clinical trials), but it does not state anywhere what it is about Lybrel that can cause you get the infection. Does anyone know how Lybrel causes this?
Lybrel: Has anyone taken this prescription to prevent periods? My periods last longer than 7 days. My periods are so heavy that I cannot wear tampons. . . I have to wear "overnight" pads during the day. Soaking a pad within an hour most times. It is very aggrevating how heavy and long my periods are. I had my tubes tide in December and my periods are horrible since they've been tied. I won't get pregnant either way. . .
Has anyone taken the birth control pill Lybrel? If so, is it any good? I've been on the Depo shot here for about 5 years and was told not to stay on it any longer than 5 years, to maybe take a breather. Anyway, I've gotten SO used to NOT having periods and was told of this pill Lybrel that stops periods as well as it gives less hormones than what other contraceptives would. Any input on this?
when is it affective to start Lybrel? my doctor told me i would have to wait till after a get my one year papsmear before i start taking any birth control pill! So if i wanted to start taking Lybrel would it still work if i start it two weeks after my period? or will i still get my period because its not the sunday after my period?
Is there a generic for lybrel birth control? This is the first time I'm taking this brand, and when I went to pick it up I was shocked. I have good insurance and it was still $40. I know that's not as bad as it could be, but I'm use to $10-$12. Anyway I was wondering if there was a generic and can I just request it from now on?
Any of you ever tried Lybrel birth control? it is one of the new ones that keep you from having your mens. cycle every month.... i just finished my first month of them and i have been on my cycle for the last 7 days...not just "break through" bleeding as they say may occur, but the real deal, maybe worse....... is this normal for the first month?
The drug Lybrel: Would you take it to stop your period completely? Next month the FDA will approve a drug called Lybrel. It completely stops menstruation: http://www.reason.com/news/show/119900.html According to a study by Lybrel's manufacturer, Wyeth, over two-thirds of women said they were interested in putting an end to "the curse." Those findings were supported by a report by Linda C. Andrist, a professor at the MGH Institute of Health Professions in Boston. Will you be taking it to end periods completely?

Anyone know when Lybrel is coming out? Does anyone know when the no-period birth control pill Lybrel is coming out? I already searched it, and I haven't found anything. I was wondering if there are any doctors or pharmacists here that might have heard. I know you can skip a period with regular birth control pills by skipping the last week, but my insurance won't cover that.
Lybrel causing herpes outbreak? I started taking lybrel about 7 days ago. Since then, I've had a herpes outbreak. Ive had herpes for like 6 years now. But I have never had an outbreak since. So my question is are there any other people out there who have taken lyrel and had an outbreak? Also, I've become really moody and letting things stress me out quite a bit since taking it. Has this happened to anyone else?
Does the drug Lybrel have a generic? I am working with some insurance informations and changing over medications. I've heard good things about this drug but it's really expensive, my initial question was could I get it as a generic so it doesn't cost as much??
Anyone who is on birth control (Lybrel preferably but not necessary?)? What did you have to do to get a prescription? Did you have to have a pelvic exam, or did you just have to answer a bunch of questions? What kind of questions did the doctor ask? Do you think I can get a prescription since I'm only 14? I heard that you have to start taking it (Lybrel) while you're on your period. Is that true? Any other helpful info would be appreciated too. Thanks! I'm not going on birth control because I'm having sex (I'm not). I'm only going on it to stop my periods so I'm not so self-concious about them when I'm at school.
Switching Birth Control, from Lybrel to Ortho Cyclen.? I was taking Lybrel, a birth control where u do not have a period. I switched to Ortho Cyclen and the pharmacist told me to wait and switch on the first day of my period.. well I don't have a period with Lybrel. I have tried calling him back but he is on vacation. I started the Ortho Cyclen on Sunday, not the first day of my period. Will I be okay?

My friend missed a couple of birth control pills last month but she takes Lybrel so she has no periods...? Well she started taking the pills again right away. About a week later she started spotting and then it progressed into a light medium period. Any possible way of her being pregnant and still bleeding or does it sound like a side effect of missing those two days? The bleeding has lasted for 11 days total and is getting lighter now. She is going to go see the doctor but she just wanted some feedback in the meantime. Maybe other experienced users.
How often do you spot/bleed on birth control? I recently started the pill Lybrel and a week and a half ago I spotted a little. Now I am bleeding like a normal period, is this normal? If anyone knows about lybrel or has taken lybrel before any information would be greatly appreciated.
Lybrel? Experiences? I was thinking about taking Lybrel, the appeal of having no period is great. However, how bad is the breakthrough bleeding? How long does it take to eliminate it? Lastly, is it sensitive as to when you take the pill (down to the hour?)
question about Lybrel? Okay, i saw someone had asked this question, but got no answers. So my question is...has anyone that has used the birth control Lybrel increased in breast size? Some birth control works with some people and some it doesnt. Im on the birth control and i just started this week and was just wondering if it has any impact. thanks everyone!
switching from seasonale to lybrel? my dr is considering switching me from seasonale to lybrel the seasonale is working great never had too much spotting at all I've been on it about 2 and a half years but my periods are still painful she says lybrel u have no periods, I hear there's alot of breakthrough bleeding but I never really had any so I was wondering since I had no spotting on seasonale that I was most likely not going to have any on the lybrel thanks
Does keeping birth control pills in the refrigerator really preserve their effectiveness? I was reading an article about how you shouldn't store any kind of birth control in extreme heat, which I already knew. But it also said that if you take a birth control pill like seasonle or lybrel where you buy a three or more months supply of pills each time, you should store them in the frig to keep them effective. Has anyone ever heard this from a reliable source?
Can birth control pills cause back pain? I recently started taking Lybrel and kind of have an achy lower back. It's more of a pressure sensation - my lower back feels like it's full of air or something - but it's very uncomfortable. Could the birth control pills be causing this?
Does Lybrel? I heard that birth control can make your breasts larger, i know it might not be true. I have Lybrel and was wondering if any women on here have grown a cup or 1/2 a cup using this pill? thanks alot!

Lybrel weight gain!! Need opinoins? HI! I have been on Lybrel for about 1 year and have gained about 20lbs. I excercise daily and at one point watched every calorie, nothing changed. My normal weight is around 140 and Im 160 now and EXTREMELY FUSTRATED. I am taking myself off the pill for a two month trial to see how I manage with out it. I have severe pmdd so I am on the pill to steady my hormone levels. Im really scared that I am going to get really sick again like I was before I started using Lybrel. Yes, I had about 9 months of bleeding but I wasnt sick so that made it worth while. Now Im going off it to try to get back to my normal weight. I was wondering if other Lybrel users have gone though this ..had this experience ?? what are your thoughts..should i be doing this? Its not to late to stay on it!
ladies, r u willing to take the risk's associated with Lybrel, the new birth control? the new one thats supposed to make your period go away. They haven't really done thurough testing on it. Are you gonna risk possible side effects, just to eliminate that "time of the month"? Shouldnt' you wait, just to be safe? H.B.I.C.---I've heard about that seasonal one too. But they are saying that you can even still get pregnant. So what could it do to a baby?
Yaz, Lybrel, Headaches and quit BCP and have been having more headaches? I'm 35 & have been on bc pills since I was15 to regulate my period. I have had headaches for the last 10 yrs but have been able to manage until the past year. My OBGYN changed my BC pills from Yaz to Lybrel (no period pill). I get headaches before my period. In the past 9 months, I ended up missing work & going to my family DR office for a shot of Torodol on 3 occassions. My family DR took me off the BCP and sent me for bloodwork; waiting for the results of bloodwork. In the week that I have been off Lybrel, I have had more headaches. Today, I woke with a headache that was in my forehead but moved to the right side of my head. I was nauseated and vomiting. I don't normally vomit. I took a hot shower and a Maxalt to relive the pain; it did relieve it for a short time. I was crying so much and fell asleep. I was ready to go to the hospital. Does anyone have any suggestions/comments or experiences like mine? I am in the process of scheduling an appt w/a specialist. Thank you for responding. I have not tried Nuvaring. My friends talk highly of it. I am not sure why my OBGYN has not brought it up. I will be calling my doctor on Monday to further discuss my options. I will let you know what I find out. Good luck in your search to find out what helps you...
Can you miscarry while taking Lybrel? I started taking lybrel 4 months ago. My periods were very light and spotting after the first month on it. 2 weeks ago I started to have the "usual" spotting, and then 2 days ago I started to bleed very heavy and last night I was in the bathroom for a 1/2 hour passing blood clots. One was as large as a 1/2 dollar. I know your supposed to have 'breakthrough bleeding" within the first several months, but this sudden heavy bleeding has me concerned. I've made a call to my doctor and I'm waiting for a call back. Not sure if this was miscarriage, or if I'm developing dangerous blood clots...any suggestions?
General Questions about taking Lybrel birth control pill? I have been taking Lybrel for 3 months and it seems that I am experiencing a wide array of side effects. Prior to taking Lybrel, I had been taking Ortho-Tri Lo for 4 months. My reason for taking B.C. pills is because my periods had been getting increasingly worse over the past year (my doc thinks I have endometriosis), which essentially made life unbearable for 1 week every month. Going to work was even a challenge during period week. Unfortunatley, I became very moody on the Ortho-Tri pill, as my body seemed to react to each dosage change that happens weekly. Lybrel has brought on different issues: 1) I had spotting for 4 weeks straight during the 2nd month of taking it. 2) After the 4 weeks of spotting, I had an actual 6 day period (luckily the last 3 weeks have been fine). 3) I started exercising vigorously and limiting calories 7 weeks ago and I have only lost 1 pound. A year ago I did the same regimen and lost 20 lbs. Anyone out there having the same experience?
lybrel breakthrough bleeding? I have been on the continous low-dose BCP Lybrel since November, and so the spotting and breakthrough bleeding have stopped. However, 11 days ago I forgot to take the pill on time and ended up taking it several hours late. As expected, I started bleeding a bit, however I'm STILL bleeding, and today it is even heavier. I keep getting cramps and I am just wondering if anyone else has been in a similar situation? Please, onyl answers from people on similar continous BCP pills, or those with a significant knowledge of them. Also, do not advise me against taking a pill like this. Thanks!

HELP PLEASE
Going on Honeymoon. Want to quit my Lybrel B.C. but how do I not have my period while Im there? Im getting married in Jamaica in April. Less than 3 months away. My period is due the same time we are getting married. I have really, really painfull awful periods and I don't want to go through that while we are in paradise. I started taking the birth control pill Lybrel about a month ago, which makes your period go away all together. But... I am moody all the time and I have cramps all the time and I have absolutely NO sex drive. I hate this pill and want to stop taking it, but feel that I need it so I won't menstruate in Jamaica. I considered the depo shot, but I want to get pregnant around June and don't want to risk that... I have read some similar questions and some have mentioned a pill the doctor gives you that will temporarily stop your period. Can anyone tell me what this is called? And maybe how it works? I hate Lybrel and really want to quit it, but don't want to risk a period on my wedding/honeymoon.... Thanks in advance for your help.
Birth Control Question..new pill out called Lybrel?? I was online today and saw a pop up for a new birth control pill called Lybrel. After reading about it I guess you take the pill everyday for 365 days no placebo pill or non active pills (so no period) and you can skip your period for as long as you take the pill. Does anyone else seem to think it is not healthy to skip your period for six months or even a year. I would assume your body would need that or why else do you have them. Let me know your thoughts on it. Thank you in advance.
I was just put on the new BCP, Lybrel, the one where you are not supposed to have a period.? I was put on BCP because my period would not become regular. I would bleed all the time. My OBGYN said I should either get on BCP for 3 monthes or have a D and C. I don't think the D and C would have worked because I would occasionally stop bleeding. So, my doctor gave me these new pills called Lybrel. When I first got on them, I pretty much stopped bleeding. I have been on them for going on 3 weeks. I started bleeding again, although it is pretty light and seems to be old blood. It freaked me out at first, but then I looked up info on the pills and everything said that most women experience breakthrough bleeding, especially in the beginning. My question is, has anyone else tried these new BCPs? Did you have breakthrough bleeding? How long did it last? -Thank you!
I think I have endometriosis. Would taking a period suppressing pill like Lybrel be a safe option for that? My mother had emdometriosis until her hysterectomy. I have cramps that feel like someone is scraping the inside of my body and I feel like they are getting increasingly worse with each period. My periods are irregular and inconsistent. I also can't remember the last time I had a bowel movement that didn't hurt or bring about bleeding or blood in the stool. I got my first period when I was 14 and with it were cramps, I'm 19 now and have never been to a gynecologist to be checked. I'm not sexually active. I've gotten to the point where I want my period to go away and never come back and have done some research on Lybrel, which takes your period away, but there is no information on the effects of Lybrel on Endometeriosis. I'd appreciate any advice I can get on this subject because I'm really afraid to take birth control from all the horror stories I've heard about it. I'm also afraid to go to the gynecologist because I've never been to one before and I don't know what to ask.
How long does breakthrough bleeding last on the new Birth Control Pill, Lybrel?? I was put on BCP because my period would not become regular. I would bleed all the time.

Been on Lybrel for 1 week today.? I just started on Lybrel a week ago today. I am extremely irritable and have been eating more than usual. I haven't been on hormones for a long time. In fact, I have the Paraguard (Copper IUD) because it has no hormones. I talked to a nurse about it last Wednesday and she said there's no way it could affect my mood only being on it a few days. I just know I am not usually this irritable. I started bleeding lightly on Saturday, too. I started this to get away from long, unpredictable periods but reading some of the other posts I could experience this breakthrough bleeding for quite awhile. Also, if I'm going to feel this cranky and hungry, I would much rather deal with my period once a month and get it overwith.Does anyone know if the irritability will subside or if it is something that is here to stay as long as I'm on this?
Lybrel or not Lybrel? ...ladies have you heard about this pill that won't give you a period,would you take it?
BC Pill - LYBREL? I am thinking of getting on this birthcontrol pill and am wondering who else has taken it and what side effects you have had and how it has worked for you.
Lybrel (the pill)? I've read about this in my magazine today. Is anyone on it and would share there experiences with me?! It sounds good to not have a period at all, would my doctor just swap me onto it off my other pill? Thanks :)
Is Lybrel the Answer to end all "Am I Pregnant?" Yahoo Questions?!?!? I think it just might be the solution to the 400+ "I missed my period/my period is late/I had sex on my period/I didn't get my period on May 17th 2007 at 5:13pm as the sun was setting over the eastern shore when the 3 blue jays fly by my window and father is passed out on the couch, am I pregnant?" questions. Having no period will eliminate these questions from arising. Who's with me? Having their own Pregnancy section has nothing to do with it showing up all the time on Recently Asked Questions. I agree there should be an automated response that says "See Your Doctor," if you're asking "Am I Pregnant." Those questions are pointless to ask. I understand if someone *IS* pregnant and says "I'm feeling nautious in the morning and some cramping, is this normal?" Then you can actually give a valid response to assist that person, "Yes, its known as Morning Sickness and is very common in early stages of pregnancy."
Anyone taking/taken Lybrel? I know what the website and all the other info says the side effects might be, but I want to know if anyone who's taken it or currently taken it has had any side effects and what they were. I'm afraid to start taking it and I want to know what to expect. Thanks, in advance
does anybody take lybrel? Yesterday I missed my pill and 2 hours after I should have took my pill I got a migrane like headache! Could that be connected?
Some important information for people who use LYBREL or SEASONIQUE? I got an email the other day about one womans story of how her daughter had been rushed to the hospital Recently this past week, Nicole Dishuk (age 31...newly grad student with a doctoral degree about to start her new career as a Doctor) she had a blood clot in her neck. By the time they removed the right have of her skull to relieve the pressure on her brain the clot had spread to her brain causing severe damage. Since last Wednesday night, she was battling. They induced her into a coma to stop the blood flow. They operated 3 times. Finally, they said there was nothing left that they could do. They found multiple clots in the left side of her brain, the swelling wouldn't stop and she was on the life support. She died at 4:30 yesterday. She has kids and a husband. So please warn every friend, daughter, wife, warn whoever you can not to use these medicines that give u 3 periods a year. You mess with nature and people get hurt. YOU HAVE PERIODS FOR A REASON. FOR THE PEOPLE WHO DONT UNDERSTAND: lybrel, which is what this young lady took; is a birth control to only have 3 periods a year. so yes it does have something to do with periods. actually it has everything to do with periods.

birth control question? I started taking Lybrel about a week and a half ago and I've been having headaches on a regular basis ever since. Has anyone else taken Lybrel and went through it or had any other side effects I'm trying to figure out if it might be a good idea to switch my birth control pill I can't stand having headaches on a regular basis.
Does a woman stopping her periods indefinitely sound healthy? Here's the article: WASHINGTON - A new birth-control pill can halt women's menstrual periods indefinitely. Called Lybrel, the pill is expected to win Food and Drug Administration approval Tuesday, becoming the latest approved oral contraceptive to depart from the traditional 21-days-on, seven-days-off regimen that has been standard since first birth control pills were sold in the 1960s. But the Wyeth pill is the first designed to be taken continuously. Lybrel contains the lowest dose of two hormones widely used in birth-control pills, ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel. Taking the pill daily would let women suppress their monthly bleeding indefinitely. However, unanticipated breakthrough bleeding may occur in some women. ____________________ Does this seem scary to you??? Do the pharmaceutical companies have a woman's best interest in mind? How do we know this won't cause a host of cancers down the line? Hope those of you on Depo are getting bone density scans on a regular basis. A broken hip from osteoporosis is practically a death sentence.
can you......bc? Can you get the birth control Lybrel in Kentucky without your parents consent? I don't want it so i can have sex i just want it so i won't have a monthly period.
can i be pregnant.? Okay. Iā??ve been taking the Lybrel birth control pill. An sometimes I take them like an hour late because I get caught up at work. I also had forgotten to take my bc two days in a row, the thrid day i had unprotected sex with my boyfriend. Then got back on track takin my bc control on time since then. For the past 4 days after I eat my stomach hasnā??t been feeling normal. Iā??ve also been getting little headaches, and i get at least 8 hrs of sleep a day but by 4 or 5 in the afternoon i'm very sleepy. Could I be Pregnant?
Is not having a period bad? I take birth control called Lybrel and I specifically asked for this certain kind because I didn't want to have a period at all, but when I discuss this with my friends some freak out saying that the period is a cleansing and I absolutely need it! Well if i needed it why would they even make birth control that stops your menstrual cycle?? I wan't to know what you have heard about needing or not needing a period it can be facts or just what you have heard all opinions having to do with the PERIOD and not my morals are welcome! in reply to chelsea I asked your opinion on the period okay? not about birth control I KNOW WHAT BIRTH CONTROL IS and i already read your lame story in reply to that 15 year old and i have to say if that was true they wouldnt allow doctors to prescribe anything that at least HELPS the menstrual cycle you should probably go lay down and get off the comp if your having such terrible pain right now i asked for opinions on the period not a moody recount on birth control
Do you have any thoughts on the Birth Control Pill that stops periods completely? "WASHINGTON -- The first birth-control pill meant to put a stop to women's monthly periods indefinitely has won federal approval, the manufacturer said Tuesday. Called Lybrel, it's the first such pill to receive Food and Drug Administration approval for continuous use. When taken daily, the pill can halt women's menstrual periods indefinitely and prevent pregnancies. It's the latest approved oral contraceptive to depart from the 21-days-on, seven-days-off regimen that had been standard since birth-control pill sales began in the 1960s. The Wyeth pill is the first designed to put off periods altogether when taken without a break. Click here to find out more! Some women raise concerns about whether blocking periods is safe or natural. But most doctors say there's no medical reason women need monthly bleeding. It can also trigger health problems from anemia to epilepsy in many women." Any thoughts? I don't think that's safe! Where will all of that endometrial lining end up? Eww...
Planned Parenthood? i have an appointment at planned parenthood next week. i was wondering how much it will cost and if they will sell lybrel there and how much it is. i live in nc, i dont work but my husband does.
Why are women so weird about menstrual suppression? I honestly don't undertstand this. I mean, when Seasonale came out and now that Lybrel is out, you'd think everyone would be celebrating. A period, aside from childbirth, is the WORST part about being female. Its an entire week every month of bleeding, cramps, bloating, fatigue, pms, and all that other lovely stuff and now that there is a way to end that, no one wants to try it! I mean, sure I was skeptical at first about the health risks, but I asked my gynecologist about it and she explained that when you're on birth control, you're not even having a real period! It's just bleeding as a side effect from hormone withdrawl and there is absolutley NO reason to have it every month. You can safely try it with ANY birth control (as women have been doing since the pill fist came out, and there's no reported problems) and still get a period as soon as you get off it. Yeah, periods are a natural fact of life, but they're absolutley horrible and since there's a safe way to stop them, why not? lynn, you could go to a planned parenthood or the local health clinic and get it free. my friend debbie does that WHO CARES if you're messing with mother nature? she's been messing with ME for the past six years! just cause it's "natural" doesn't mean you should have to deal with it! i've been on seasonale for two years, and yeah i've had spotting. but after your body get used to it, you have no more spotting and you're happily period-free! it's worth it
What is the best birth control pill? I am currently switching to Lutera.? I am on ortho tricyclen lo so far, I like it because it is well known, and it has helped my skin and i havent gained weight. It has made me a little nauseas though so I have been switched to lutera, I have never even heard of it so I was wondering if anyone could tell me their experience with Lutera, or a better birth control pill to switch to, I was thinking of yaz or seasonale. I would love not to have my period every month, so Lybrel didnt seem so bad either. Someone let me know what they think please. besides abstinence.I am trying to be serious and get some serious advice on birth control pills.
Could I be pregnant? Okay. Iā??ve been taking the Lybrel birth control pill. An sometimes I take them like an hour late because I get caught up at work. For the past 3 days after I eat my stomach hasnā??t been feeling normal. Iā??ve also been getting little headaches, and have a little trouble falling asleep. Could I be Pregnant?
What kind of birth control is best? I was on Ortho-Cyclen for 10 years and never had a problem with it. I have been off birth control for about 8 years now but want to go back on. I am going to go with Ortho-Cyclen again but I would like to hear anyone's input on it, what they have tried, wether they liked it or not, gained weight, had any problems. I know I don't want to try Lybrel or Seasonique because they have had serious problems with them.
Does anybody know when the? new birth control pill (LYBREL) will hit the market?It is suppose to stop your mentstral cycle. I have endometriosis! I have it bad. I had to have surgery two weeks ago and I think this pill could help me! The medicine they want me to take is Lupron it will cost me 1,400! The doctor told me I could never have any other children so I won't have to worry about that! I am just tired of hurting! THANK YOU GUYS FOR ANSWERING!
Would stopping the menstrual cycle end the PMDD symptoms I deal with half the month? I have PMDD, I was on Yasmin but the migraines were killer. I took Ortho Tri Cyclen, got pregnant on it, tried Seasonale and only had erratic spotting. Usually the pill gives me weight gain, headaches and kills the sex drive. So for the past 6 months I haven't been on anything. But now the PMDD is getting the best of me. I can be a monster and the cramps are so bad. I've dealt with this for the past 5 years (it wasn't as bad before but got severe 5 years ago) I have tried about all the birth controls out there, Depo, Lunelle, Nuva Ring and an IUD (which I wouldn't wish on anyone! That was AWFUL) So short of a hysterectomy, what else is there? I considered trying Yaz, I liked Yasmine except the headaches, and then I read about Lybrel, which is a 365 day pill that stops the period. So my question is without a period and menstrual cycle would the cramps etc get better or just build up until they are released when I decide to have a period???
the new pill to stop menstruation?only womens? what do you now about this new pill name lybrel that stop menstruation so if you take that pill your not going to ovulation and you can't get pregnet or do you now how it works? and what do you think about that would you used? ok man can answer to but don't say nothing bad i want to now about this is not a game
What female contraceptive pills and yeast infection medications are available for sale in India? Hi! I'm an American who will be moving to India long-term after marrying my fiancee, who is an Indian citizen, and I need to know a few things about female health products avaliable there--primarily because we're not planning on having babies right away! First of all, what types of contraceptive/birth control pills will I be able to get? Here we have things like Loestrin, Yaz, Lybrel, and so on. They are perscription medications, and I don't have a problem seeing an Indian doctor to get something similar. Can you give me a few names of pills? Also, I suffer from frequent vaginal yeast infections, and I'm wondering if there are medications in India to treat them. Here the most popular thing we use is called Monostat (www.monistat.com) and I also take a natural supplement called AZO yeast. Thirdly, does anyone know if I can get Valtrex (www.valtrex.com) at any Indian pharmacies? Hope I've been specific enough! Thank you so much!
