Brands of Pill

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
My doctor wants to take me off Dianette because of the increased risk of blood clots. I've already tried Cilest and Microgynon and neither were very good for me. I've done a google search on 'brands of pill' but found nothing, does anyone know of any websites which list the brands of pills and their hormone dosages?

Cheers

    I've just had a search around and can't find a specific site either. If you take a look at the end of these two articles, they list the popular brands - you might have to Google the brand names individually and get the info from each site.

    Combined pill

    Progestogen-only pill

    Probably best to talk you concerns through with your doctor though - hopefully you'll find the best one for you eventually. Also, don't forget that there are lots of other types of contraception available that mioght be more suitable to you. Take a lookie here for more info:

    Contraception

    My mum is on Yasmin if that helps.
