It worked fine and did not affect my nursing supply. </p> <p>I had no real complaints--my period also didn't come back until 11 months pp so I only had 2 periods on it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-taken-micronor#post-1719916 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 21:55:01 +0000 fancyfunction 1719916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I take it and have for years. No real issues with it - just sometimes I'll skip a period or one will come really early or late out of the blue. But this has only happened a handful of times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-taken-micronor#post-1719788 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 20:59:00 +0000 Mrs. Chipmunk 1719788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Yellowbird - it's the only bcp you can take while bf. generic names could be heather, Camilla, errin....there are many other generic names.

Worked great for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-taken-micronor#post-1719628 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 19:58:28 +0000 AmeliaBedilia 1719628@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did for 1 month- I had decided to go with an IUD, but waiting til I was on DH's insurance meant saving over $1000. It was ok- I don't remember any significant side effects, but you have to take it within a three hour time frame which stressed me out. Also remember that you don't take a week off like you do with most birth control pills. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-taken-micronor#post-1719582 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 19:43:45 +0000 yellowbird 1719582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never heard of it.
