I have been on Triphasil for more than 10 years and heard that is was a very strong pill to take. My skin and hair is quite dry and the PMS became worse. So I though of trying something different and everybody recommends Zyban. So used my last Triphasil pill and started with Zyban, the day that I was suppose to start my period. I am still in Zyban (1 week) and I have been late for 1 week. Is this normal to be late or skip a period when you change to a different contraception pill or is something else wrong? Do I need to take a pregnancy test?

Zyban is NOT a form of birth control as Triphasil is. Zyban was designed to quit smoking.

Please use another form of birth control as, again, Zyban is NOT a contraceptive pill.

Sorry, my bad, I meant Yasmin.
