Is an additional method of contraception required when switching from Rigevidon to Belara?
Hello. For 9 months I took Rigevidon birth control pills, but I decided to change them to Belara contraceptive pills. After a 7-day break, is an additional method of contraception indicated when starting a package of contraceptive pills other than before? Best regards.

Mrs. Malwino, during the occurrence of chronic diarrhea and abdominal pain, it is recommended to use probiotics to rebuild and normalize the intestinal bacterial flora. Examples of probiotic preparations that can be used are, for example, Enterol https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/27293/enterol-250-kapsulki/apteki - dosage 2 x 1 caps. Lacidofil - https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/42092/lacidofil-kapsulki/apteki, dosage 3 x 1 caps. Sanbropi https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/69127/sanprobi-super-formula-kapsulki/apteki - dosage 2 x 2 caps. You should also take care of proper hydration, as chronic diarrhea can lead to excessive loss of water and electrolytes. You are taking Nifuroxazide for a maximum of 7 days. The described symptoms, due to the frequency and length of occurrence, it is worth consulting a doctor, he will order appropriate tests to diagnose the problem. I submit information about antidiarrheal drugs: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-zwalczyc-biegunke

Wikuś22 - yes
Hello, for some time I have a problem with the fact that every morning I have a pediculosis, not typical diarrhea, only loosened stools with food residues. I have been taking birth control pills for over a year. I do not know what the cause of this phenomenon may be and I ask for advice. Passing stool in the morning is not one-time, it is given 5-6 times in small quantities and then it is already normalized. I don't understand what's going on. I take nifuroxazide Hasco 200 In addition, I have slight abdominal pain, gas, I am cold when my stomach hurts and I do not know what to think. The situation so far has occurred 3 times, June 25, July 1, and since yesterday it occurs every day I will add that before I consumed a lot of dairy, 2 cheeses or yogurts a day.
So if I started taking Belara contraceptive pills right after a 7-day break, everything is ok?

According to the Belara Summary of Product Characteristics, "The patient should start using Belara on the first day after the end of the interruption period of the tablets or the placebo pill period of the previously used combined hormonal contraceptive." Accordingly, when the above scheme is used, there is no need to use an additional method of contraception. I enclose materials that may be useful when using hormonal contraception: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-prawidlowo-stosowac-antykoncepcje https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/9841/belara-tabletki-powlekane/ulotka/115372
