What Alternative Birth Control Pill Can Be Taken Instead Of Rigevidon Tablets?

Hi Doctor I was taking Yasmin tablets for 17 years and now my doctor has put me on Rigevidon tablets. I have been taking these for 2 months now and have put on 4kg in weight and a bloating stomach. Is there an alternative contraceptive that I can take?Please advise

Hello,

You can consider progesterone only pills (POP) instead of conventional pills, POP has got less chance for side effects.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
