OTC-Lo, vaginal drynessside effects July 06, 2006 Category: Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo (Oral) I've been taking OTC-Lo for a year now, and it has effected my body since. First of all, i would like to say that everybody's body is different--and not all the side effects i'm stating will happen to all who take it (because that isn't true!) I've had a problem with becoming severly "dry" during intercourse. It was more than just a physical problem, it was an emotional one for me also. Not being able to become "wet" made me feel like less of a woman, and since then i've had problems with my boyfriend when it comes to sex. I know that there are other methods of lubrication, but it still bothered me. I went back to my gyno and we decided to try just the regular OTC. I also spotted several times, and had the whole "itching" experience, it was not good. I'm trying out Tri-Sprintec which is just the generic verison of OTC. I have to admit, i was curious about the drug and i came onto this website to do some research. i found myself becoming increasingly afraid to take it. but i realized that everyone's body is different. not all the "horror" stories on this site will happen to me. I just wanted to see if anyone had experienced vaginal dryness with OTC-Lo. I've been told from my gyno that switching to the regular dose will do the trick--i hope. |
