My doctor put me ortho-tricycline to help lighten my periods but now my chest just HURTS. I feel like I did when I stopped breastfeeding. Does anyone else take this and have this happen? I've only taken it for 11 days. I'm hoping after a month or two this will stop.

Hmmm...I used to take it (to help with some complexion problems AND as Birth Control) but I don't remember having any problems with it as you are describing. Is there any information on-line about it??

What did your pharmicist say? Are you taking other meds also?
