    Default Cheapest BC Pill??

    Hi everyone, I need to get on the pill, I dont have insurance, no planed parenthood around here.. but I was on this one for a month bc I got a sample and the last time I went to get it from the pharm. it was 89$ . I dont only need it from BC but I need to try to get rid of my ovarian cyst. I asked my doc if he knew the cheapest he doesnt.. he is an ass hole. I was on this loestrin 24 fe and on the website it said click here for 30$ a month prescription plan. but it just refreshes the page, and there is not contact number. it just says see your doc.

    Do you have a local health department? If you do, call and make an appointment. Heath departments offer a sliding scale for payment. Some will even set a pay plan if you cant afford to pay at time of visit. They would be a great resource for you to go to.

    Is it just me or does birth control kill your sex drive?

    Bambi, also if you get an exam, like a pap smear or just go see a doctor (a different one) for your cyst, you can tell him you don't have insurance and are tight with money, and he'll give you extra sample packs on BC. My doc gave me 4.

    Yep, generic is cheap. I pay 12 or trinessa (this is ortho, but generic). I go to Walgreens (closer than walmart for me.)
    Please don't lick me, it tickles..

    When I went to planned parenthood years ago they gave me a special medical card specifically for birth control. I got mine for free. May want to check that out.

    I asked, he said he didnt have any more. I know he was lien. He is kinda of jerk. He doesnt really listen to me. The whole office is kinda screw. When I got my IUD taken out they gave me a pac of BC and said that the follow up in a month would be free.. I was like hell ya, because I had just sent 250 dollars!! When I went back it was 55 dollars and he was like no I dont have any more and I asked well can you prescribe me a cheaper one, and he was like I dont know how much any of them cost!
    But he is the cheapest ones I could find so Im tried to do with what I got.

    but Im going to switch.. I had this one doc in that I LOVED.. they were so nice there.. I saw the lady NP, but they really care and took a lot of time. But they were fast too... but after the last huricane there office got messed up and I havent been able to find them. I even went to the buliding and asked a few neighboring suite and they had not heard from them either.. probably move where there where no hurricanes!

    JUST like I thought!!! NOTHING. well he did get my BC and it was 9 dollars, and I told him about the other pain problems I was having and burning. He tested my pee and pH and My pH was 7.3 and its supposed to be a 3. He said he could see or feel anything and he would do an ultra sound.l. He had already done one last time! but he was like we are going to schedul you one at the hospital. I was like well forget it I cant afford that. It says in green really big. CASH customer! I was upset when I was leaving, and I talked to the ladie in the front and she told me the ultra sound machine they had broke two weeks ago and they are waiting on another one. The doc. also prescribed me some meds to get my pH back in balance and it was 70 dollars at walmart and there is no generic for that! So I didnt get it, I think If I start eating healthier I could try to correct it myself. But it really pissed me off that he didnt help me with the main thing, my pain. and he could have told me the machine was broken, I mean he is a fucking dumb ass! Next week my mom want to drive me to galvaston, and get a fuckin appointment with UTMB, which they have a branch here and its Still 200 dollars and the apts. are a few months away. I already had an apt and they told me they couldnt give me price til I went to the apt, and I waited 3 months and they wanted 200 dollars. Its redicullus. And Im even more mad bc I waited 3 hours, yes 3 hours in the waiting room. I was hurrying to get there my Apt was at 3 I got there at 3.05 and didnt get in the room til 5.48!!!! And I was going to go to work tonight I wanted to get there around 4.30 but then I was upset, and my ex boyfriend who I WAS tryn to work things out with said he was going to call me today, and its 9pm. He knows about my health problems and I thought he cared about me, but oviously not. It just really sucks, to realize someone really doesnt care about you, esp. after you cared about that person so much.

    But I have been thinking If It doesnt work out with this guy Ill know next time to go for someone with money insted of getting my heart broken again. =(

    Birth control makes me fat and ugly and depressed. I haven't taken it in like 10 years!


    Bambi, sounds to me like you might have a little more than ovarian cysts if you are having pain like that. Have they ever talked to you about poossibly having endometriosis? It won't show up on an ultra sound.
