What do y’all do for birth control?

I switched to taytulla (birth control pill) in January and I’ve been having my normal period symptoms and haven’t missed a pill this month (I track both religiously with my period app) but I haven’t gotten my period. I even took an early pregnancy test yesterday bc I was supposed to get it Wednesday but it came back negative.

🗣🗣 to all the PEOPLE** on this pill

A nationwide recall has been issued for the birth control brand Taytulla due to a mistake that could lead to unintended pregnancies.

Parent company Allergan is recalling nearly 170,000 packs of the birth control that have been circulating since last August.

A normal 28-day pack of Taytulla contains 24 pink hormone pills followed by four maroon placebo pills that cause bleeding. But, in the packs being recalled, the placebo pills are at the beginning of the pack.

"As a result of this packaging error, oral contraceptive capsules, that are taken out of sequence, may place the user at risk for contraceptive failure and unintended pregnancy," said a statement from Allergan.

Taytulla is the first birth control pill that has come in a softgel capsule with a low-dose of estrogen. With only 20 micrograms per day. Learn more about Taytulla and where to purchase at https://www.canadapharmacy.com/products/taytulla. 

Note that taytulla may not be for everyone so its important to speak with your doctor before getting a prescription for this medication.
