You may be switching from a mini-pill to a combined pill.
Opill is the first and only birth control pill available without a prescription.
Talk with your healthcare provider if you have questions or concerns about switching.
Alternatively, you’ve got the option to actually start your new combination pill right away.
Be prepared to possibly experience someside effects.
You do not need to wait for your next menstrual period.
This will ensure a seamless switch and allow you to move forward without the worry of unintended pregnancy.
