Can Femilon Be Continued For To Avoid Pregnancy?

default
Posted on Sat, 19 Apr 2014
Question: I am using Femilon since 15 months to avoid pregnancy as we would like to wait for at least 2 years. Can I continue this for another 10 months? Will I face adverse effects in the future due to this? Currently I sometimes feel sudden headache, drowsiness, weak. Are these the effects of Femilon? Please suggest.
