"Today, many women want a Pill that offers not only effective pregnancy prevention, but also other benefits, like predictable periods and minimal breakthrough bleeding," said Dr. Schulz. "Women need to talk to their healthcare professionals about what is the best option for them. For women interested in a high performance, low-dose pill, ORTHO TRI-CYCLEN LO can be a great option because it may provide shorter, lighter or more predictable periods."

ORTHO TRI-CYCLEN(R) LO (norgestimate/ethinyl estradiol) is indicated for the prevention of pregnancy in women who elect to use oral contraceptives as their method of contraception. It is the low-dose, triphasic hormonal birth control pill that contains norgestimate, the number one prescribed progestin, and provides high efficacy in pregnancy prevention with a low incidence of common side effects.

Jane Buckingham and Dr. Valerie Schulz are paid consultants for Ortho Women's Health & Urology.
