So dd usually has Munalea 150/20 and realised she’s been prescribed 150/30. She’s not good with oestrogen. Does she need to go back and change or is it that different?

Munalea is the generic form of mercilon,a low dose pill. I'm not good with oestrogen either - horrific headaches even on a low dose, a standard dose (30mg) is just awful. If she has oestrogen causing side effects I wouldn't take a higher dose.

Loestrin 20 is an alternative low dose pill.
