Sprintec Birth Control
 
Have any of you ever tried it?
If so did you experience nausea and headaches? I'm on day 4 and I have to constantly fight off the urge to vomit and thats hard do since I'm an EMT working in the back of an ambulance lol!
I talked to my doctor yesterday to maybe get something for the nausea when im in the back of the rig but she pretty much told me to suck it up and it will go away in 2 months! uhhh i can't handle it for that long. Did the nausea go away soon for you?

Also, did it help with acne or make it worse?
Finally, any change in breast size?

Thanks for any information you can provide!

I am on it, I havent experienced any side effects really. I would try and see if you can stick it out long. I wouldn't wait 2 months though that sounds kinda absurd.

It helped my mood swings immensely, and it helped with my acne I think. I dont break out near as bad as I used too. I didn't have any change in breast size thank god I dont think I could handle being any bigger than I am. DD or DDD depending on the day.

I'm on Ortho tri-lo, and I felt really sick the first week. After the first week I was fine. Hopefully it will go away soon for you.

I am on tri-ness (generic for ortho-tri-cyclen) and I was sick during the first month....after that I loved it!

I love being on the pill. It really sets my mind at ease about a lot of things!

I take sprintec and for the first month my breasts grew and were very sensitive. After that I've had no other side effects. I haven't noticed any changes in acne or mood swings.

Thanks all for your input! I'm going to stick this out for a month and reevaluate at that point.
