I am taking the birth control pill Jencycla 0.35 mg and I change to minovral21, do I have to put on a condom for 7 days if I take the pill at the same time? In this case, can I continue to take jencycla (initial pill) at the same time (7pm) and start minovral in the morning (7am) new desired time? Thank you!!!

How do I make the transition from one contraceptive to another?

Hello, thank you for your question!

The Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada suggests that you take both your new contraceptive and Jencycla for the next 7 days

However, if you cannot take both medications at the same time, then yes, you will need a second method of contraception for the first 7 days of taking Minovral.

I hope I have been of some help to you and I am available if you have any further questions!
