Hi I have been using Celest but have just been told its been discontinued. I have tried numerous other pills which haven't worked for me what is a good pill to move over to?

Do you mean Cilest ? Its a 35 mcg oestrogen combined pill with norgestimate. There are alternative brands apparently "There are two alternative products that are currently available in the UK with the same active ingredients - Cilique® and Lizinna®." You can attend your GP for a prescription. Or try an alternative , lower dose oestrogen pill. There is no best option - its a case of trying one till you find one that suits you
