My HMO just switched my birth control pill because they no longer carry my old one and I am not reacting well to the new pill, Zovia. I want to find out which pills are closest to Ortho Tri-Cyclen so I am informed when I go to see my gynocologist in two weeks. Does anyone know where I could find a comparison chart? Or can somebody who is informed tell me which pills are closest to OTC?

Ortho Tricyclen is still on patent and there is no generic equivalent, There is no other pill that has the same progestin component either (except the similar OrthoCyclen)
