Hi Cait,
Just checking in to see if you got the following email from me a few days ago. Email me back at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com

Hi Cait,
Thanks for your question. I am not a medical doctor so I suggest that you consult your own physician. I do have a lot of knowledge on the subject. I'm not sure about ortho tri-cyclin in particular or the blue and green pills. I think what you are telling me is not the correct way to take the pills. You need to take the medication according to the directions or it will not work properly.
Have you had any problems with your period or any side effects? If you email me with more of the details, I can advise your further. Please email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com
I also would like to talk more to you about some of the side effects and risks of the pill.
So hope to hear from you soon.
