Having Microgestin Birth Control After Child Birth, No Problems. Refilling Getting Delayed. Can Be Purchased Online?
Hello,
I have been taking the birth control called Microgestin Fe 1/20. I haven't had any problems with it since I began taking in December 2012, after the birth of our son. Well since then I always seem to have an issue getting my prescription refilled with my Doc. When I call my refill in my pharmacy, there is ALWAYS a delay. She seems to want me to come in once a month for a check up. I have been on different types of BC in the past, & usually after your first pap your in the clear for a year with BC, unless a problem occurs. Why do I have to go to the doc so often, when all she ever asks me is how are the pills agreeing with me? Is there any way I can purchase my pills online? I am so tired of going back & forth to the doc when it's not necessary. I'm healthy, not issues, please help!

Hi,
Thank you for choosing Healthcaremagic. Ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone is a combination drug that contains female hormones that prevent ovulation (the release of an egg from an ovary). To buy Microgestin its always better to buy from pharmacy, if you want to buy online you need to google and find out if any websites offer you this drug in your country.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. In case of any doubt, I will be available for follow-ups. If you like my answers kindly rate it, and write a review as well. Please do not forget to accept it.
Thank you,
Wish you good health.
Regards,
Dr Arif
