I removed the Kyleena contraceptive device because of a lot of side effects (terrible hair loss, acne, etc.). I was given Vibin birth control pills. Do they have a different hormone like an IUD? I'm afraid of more side effects and falling out of all my hair

Kyleena and Vibin have completely different derivatives of sex hormones in their composition. Kyleena is a one-component therapeutic system that contains levonorgestrel. Vibin is a two-component contraceptive pill containing ethinylestradiol and drospirenone. According to the manufacturer of the drug Vibin, alopecia as a side effect can occur in 0.1-1% of patients. In the case of the Kyleena IUD, the data speak of 1-10% of patients. Of course, these are indicative data, but they give some idea of how to compare the incidence of some side effects.
